Donors usually give stock with a low cost basis and a substantial margin of appreciation.
The donor transfers the stock without incurring a capital gain and receives a charitable deduction equivalent to the median share value of the stock on the date of transfer. It is important to let us know in advance when you are making a gift of stock. Brokerage houses occasionally transfer a gift of stock to our account without telling us who made the gift and it is very difficult to track down the donor. We want to credit and thank you for your gift, ascertain the correct market value at transfer, and give you the appropriate tax information. Advance notice helps us keep track of your donation.
