You invest. A child profits. A donation in the form of stocks, bonds, mutual funds or other appreciated securities, is an investment in the future of children in your community.
As a donor, you are entitled to a charitable deduction for the full fair-market value of appreciated securities held longer than one year and you may be exempt from the capital gains tax that would be due if you sold the securities.
If your equities are currently held in a bank or brokerage account, please contact us to arrange the donation.
Please Note: It is extremely important that you notify the Princeton Area Community Foundation when transferring securities into this account so we may credit your gift to the appropriate charitable fund. Contact information is available in the Stock Transfer Form. Securities cannot be sold until the donor has been identified. Additionally, your name and address are required for tax deduction and acknowledgment purposes. Please notify us at skarpowicz@mercerbbbs.org upon completion, or if you have any questions.
