Alternative Offering Avenues:
The followings are for information purposes only and not intended as tax advice. Please consult your
tax advisor to determine whether these donation methods are right for you.
If you hold appreciated assets—such as stocks, bonds, or mutual funds—donating them directly to a qualified charity like a church
can be a highly tax-efficient way to give.
​
When you donate appreciated securities that is held long-term (held more than one year):
-
You avoid paying capital gains tax on the appreciation.
-
You may still deduct the full fair market value of the asset as a charitable contribution, subject to IRS limits (generally up to 30% of your AGI for gifts of appreciated property to public charities).
To qualify for these benefits:
-
The donation must be made directly to the charity (do not sell first).
-
The asset must be publicly traded or otherwise properly valued.​
Please email treasuer@gefcsf.org to request DTC receiving instructions
