Stock Giving

Make a larger impact by donating long-term appreciated securities, including stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, directly to CVC.

Stock Giving

By donating stock that has appreciated for more than a year, you are actually giving more than if you sold the stock and then made a cash donation.

The reason is simple: avoiding capital gains taxes. Consult with your financial advisor and/or tax advisor to analyze your particular situation and confirm tax benefits.
