Marketable Securities

Any outright gift of appreciated securities is a great way of committing your charitable gift toward SAF. Your gift of listed stocks, bonds, or other publicly traded securities may entitle you to a charitable income tax deduction of the full fair market value of the securities on the date of the gift, provided you have owned the securities for more than one year. Your representative can coordinate this transfer by calling SAF’s office at (267) 613-9811.

Tangible Property
