Gifts of Stock

Back to Main Donation page

Giving a gift of publicly traded stock that has increased in value and that you have owned for more than one year may provide greater tax benefits to you than giving cash.

Your broker can assist you in making a gift of stock via a direct transfer to BCAN.  Your charitable income tax donation is equal to the fair market of the stock and you avoid paying capital gains tax on any increase in the current value over the original cost of the stock.

If you would like to invest in BCAN by donating stock, please contact us for detailed information (301-215-9099 or toll free at 888-901-BCAN).
