Gifts of appreciated securities may be deducted at full market value on the date of transfer to Peace Development Fund. Give the Peace Development Fund a gift of stock that has increased in value and you may:

  • Claim a charitable gift deduction on your current yea'sr taxes, if you itemize 
  • Avoid capital gains taxes you would owe if you sold it yourself
  • Avoid paying broker fees on the sale

To receive the full tax benefit, it is very important that you donate your appreciated stock directly to PDF and have us sell it.

If you have any questions regarding making a stock gift to PDF please call Ray Santiago (413) 256-8306 ext. 101 or e-mail Ray (Ray @ peacefund.org).
