Non-cash giving [sub/descriptor]: Explore donation options that offer a variety of tax benefits and philanthropic connection to our cause.

Donate stock:
Donating appreciated stock, mutual funds, and other securities can increase the amount available for charitable giving by as much as 20 percent—putting more dollars to work for greater impact while reducing your tax burden.

Gifts of appreciated securities may avoid the capital gains taxes associated with selling the assets yourself, and you receive a fair market value tax deduction for the tax year in which the gift is made.

Donor Advised Funds: [if this section requires a separate page let me know and I’ll come up with a sub/descriptor]

A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple way to give. You can contribute cash, stock, or other assets, and recommend grants to your favorite charities over time. A DAF can help manage your after-tax wealth as well.

DAF giving is one of the fastest growing ways to support nonprofits like Pets for Patriots. If you already have a DAF, those dollars are waiting to make a difference—because DAF funds must go to charitable causes. With more than 1,000 providers across the country, opening a DAF is easier than ever.
