Giving a gift of appreciated securities (stock) is a great way to support AIDS Care Fund in our goal of helping adults and children living with AIDS. There are two significant benefits to you, the donor, in making these kinds of gifts. 1. In most instances, you are entitled to deduct the full market value of the stock from your taxes. 2. You can avoid paying capital gains taxes on the appreciated securities. |
