Donating appreciated securities can offer several advantages over selling the assets and donating the proceeds.
Your investment in a healthier, more equitable world can go even further when you donate appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds to Doctors of the World USA.
A gift of securities is a simple, tax-efficient way to support our work delivering healthcare to people affected by conflict, disasters, displacement, and barriers to care. By donating long-term appreciated securities directly, you may be able to reduce or eliminate capital gains taxes while making a meaningful contribution to our mission.
Because every financial situation is different, we encourage you to consult your financial or tax advisor to determine what tax benefits may apply to you.
How to Donate Securities
Making a gift is straightforward.
- Contact your financial advisor or brokerage firm to initiate the transfer of your securities.
- Notify Doctors of the World USA of your upcoming gift so we can properly identify and acknowledge your donation.
- Once the transfer is complete, we’ll provide a confirmation for your records.
Providing advance notice helps ensure your gift is credited promptly and allows us to thank you for your generosity.
