Gift of Stocks

Giving stock is an excellent way to show generosity while realizing tax benefits. A gift of appreciated stock is deductible from your income tax at the stock’s fair market value, and you avoid the capital gains tax that would otherwise result from selling the stock and making a cash gift to JWU.

When making a stock gift to the university, please be sure to inform us so that we can process the stock gift in a timely manner. In addition, please have your broker contact the University Advancement Office to receive information that will facilitate the transfer.
