The Stock Giving CenterSM
Take full advantage of federal and state tax laws and give up to 60% or more when you donate appreciated stock (compared to making the same gift in cash). Call your financial advisor or click the "Donate Stock" button below to use the Community Foundation's Stock Giving CenterSM.

Can I afford to give stock? Yes, you can!
You can afford to give more to your favorite charities and causes by giving stock instead of cash -- so they get more, too! Absolutely everyone can benefit from stock giving. A couple with an income of $45,000 can easily give 20% to 50% more by giving stock instead of cash.  You can even leverage the value of your smaller gifts. Why give $500 in cash when, in stock form, you can increase your gift by $100 to $250 without increasing your after-tax cost? Try the calculator and see for yourself!
