Make a Stock Gift

NWABA Accepts Gifts of Stock!

When you donate stock, bonds, or mutual funds you are helping to improve the quality of life for children, youth, and adults who are blind or visually impaired. As a donor, you may get a tax deduction (consult your accountant and/or financial advisor for any tax questions) for the full value of the stock gift while avoiding long-term capital gains. In turn, your generous gift will support NWABA’s mission and programs.

Donating Appreciated Stock:
Donate shares of appreciated stock directly to NWABA and receive a double tax benefit by avoiding capital gains on the profit you’ve gained and receiving a tax deduction for the fair market value of your gift.

Donating Depreciated Stock:
Sell shares of depreciated stock and then give the cash proceeds to NWABA and take both the loss deduction and the charitable deduction.
