Donate Appreciated Securities
If you have unrealized gains in your taxable portfolio accounts, consider making charitable contributions of appreciated stock instead of cash. A gift of appreciated stock that has been held for more than one year generally can provide a double benefit by allowing the taxpayer to receive the charitable contribution deduction equal to the stock's fair market value on the date of contribution, and excluding from taxable income the gain on the stock appreciation which would normally be taxed at the capital gain rates of 15% or 20% depending on the tax bracket of the donor. Contact treasurer@dolphinfoundationsf.org for more information.
