Gifts of Stock or Mutual Funds
Gifts of long-term appreciated stock or mutual fund shares are an easy way to make a lasting contribution to The Trust for Public Land. Benefits include:
- Income tax savings—For securities you have owned for more than one year, you can take an immediate income tax deduction.
- Capital gain tax savings—Avoid capital gain taxes you would have incurred if you had sold the stock or mutual fund shares.
- Conservation support—Provide crucial support to TPL at a lower cost than if you had made a gift of cash.
Prior to transfer, notify TPL with the following information:
- Your name
- Number of shares
- Name of the stock or fund
- Whether the shares will be used to fund a trust or an annuity.
