Gifts of Stock

Giving appreciated securities (publicly traded or closely held), bonds, or mutual fund shares is a superb way to show support for the Morgridge Institute for Research. Gifts of securities may be used to make outright gifts, establish an endowment or support specific institutional priorities.

A gift of appreciated securities may qualify for a charitable tax deduction and may avoid the long-term capital gains tax on the appreciated value of the asset. Stocks or bonds held more than one year that have increased in value may qualify for a deduction equal to the full market value of the gift.
