A gift of appreciated securities such as stocks, mutual funds,
and bonds can provide attractive benefits. An outright gift
of long-term appreciated securities (securities held for more
than a year) avoids capital gains taxes, and in most cases
the donor obtains a charitable income tax deduction equal
to the market value of the securities. For gifts of property,
your gift is fully deductible for up to 30% of your adjusted
gross income and, like gifts of cash, may be carried forward
for five additional years.
