You can make a gift of appreciated securities—publicly traded stocks, bonds and mutual fund shares listed on the NYSE or NASDAQ exchanges —to The Longbranch Foundation while avoiding capital gains tax and qualifying for a charitable income tax deduction for the full fair market value.

Please note that the securities you use to make your gift must have been held by you for more than one year to be fully deductible.

The Longbranch Foundation cannot render tax or legal advice. Please consult with your professional financial advisor before making a charitable gift.
