Gifts of Securities

Donations of publicly traded securities are an effective way to support the Cornerstone community. Not only does it provide immediate and substantial impact, but it also provides the donor with substantial tax benefits.

Donations of publicly traded securities, such as stocks, income trust units, bonds, and mutual fund units provide the donor with an opportunity to make a major reduction in their taxable income.

Due to the elimination of the capital gains tax on gifts of securities to registered charitable organizations, a direct donation of stock to Cornerstone can help you to avoid capital gains taxes and provide a tax credit for your donation.

If you believe a donation of securities is the right choice for you, please download our Securities Transfer Form for more information.

Thank you for your interest in making women’s lives better with a gift of securities to Cornerstone Housing for Women.
