More on Stock Giving
A smarter way to give
Recent tax changes raised the standard deduction for joint filers to $29,200 for those under 65, complicating itemized deductions.

The Donor Advised Fund (DAF) lets individuals consolidate contributions and itemize deductions, aligning philanthropy with financial planning.

Contributing appreciated stocks allows individuals to embed capital gains and deduct the full value of the gift.

This tax-efficient strategy, combined with Roth conversion, not only enhances lifetime giving through tax-free growth but also supports prudent financial planning.

We gladly accept and encourage gifts from donor-advised fund accounts.

Recommend a grant through your fund administrator. Our EIN 92-1826702

Clients of Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable and BNY Mellon can make a designation through the DAF Direct window above.

Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) sponsors like Vanguard Charitable can now efficiently and electronically grant funds to us through PayPal.

We are a qualified charity with Fidelity Charitable Gift Fund EFT and PayPal Giving Fund.

Donating retirement assets, like an IRA, provides crucial support to charities such as the GOSUMEC Foundation USA.

Your contribution can make a meaningful impact on our mission and initiatives.

Efficient Charitable Giving

Individuals aged 70½ or older can donate up to $105,000 directly to charities from an IRA through a QCD.
