Gift of Stock
All stock counts!
Your support helps us use theater to contribute to a more connected, compassionate, and creative community. We want, in return, for your gift to be as tax efficient to you as possible!
How it Works:
- Gifts of appreciated stock can often yield significant tax benefits because they are often deductible from your income tax at their fair market value.
- This kind of gift will often avoid capital gains tax that might otherwise result from selling the stock and then using the cash to make your gift to the Chance.
- Gifts of appreciated assets are often deductible in amounts up to 30% of your adjusted gross income, and any remaining deduction may generally be carried over for use in the future.
How to Donate:
- We will need your broker’s name and telephone number as well as the name of the stock and the number of shares you wish to transfer.
- Please also inform your broker of your intent to make a gift of stock. This information will ensure the details of the transaction are completed accurately and efficiently.
- Stock may be donated by electronic transfer (DTC) of the shares between your broker and Chance Theater’s broker.
- You should consult your attorney or financial adviser before making the donation.
Stock transferred in this fashion is valued on the date of the transfer — the date it moves into the Chance Theater account.
