Stock Donations

Giving Through Stock Donations

Donating appreciated stocks to Point of View is an excellent way to support Christian education while receiving significant tax benefits.

Benefits of Stock Donations

• Avoid capital gains taxes on appreciated stocks
• Receive a tax deduction for the full fair market value
• Support Point of View's mission directly
• Make a larger impact with the same out-of-pocket cost

How It Works

When you donate appreciated securities that you have held for more than one year:

• You avoid paying capital gains tax
• You receive a charitable deduction for the full fair market value
• Your broker can transfer shares directly to our account

Tax Efficiency Example

If you bought stock for $5,000 that is now worth $10,000 and you sell it, you would pay capital gains tax on the $5,000 profit. But if you donate it to Point of View instead, you get a $10,000 tax deduction and avoid all capital gains taxes!
