Donating stocks – important new tax advantages
You no longer have to pay capital gains tax when you donate publicly traded stocks to qualified charities, under new tax rules introduced in 2006.
If you own stocks with substantial unrealized capital gains, this tax change can enable you to give a much larger gift compared to selling the stocks, then donating the proceeds. You can also completely eliminate capital gains tax when you donate a certain amount of a particular stock, while selling the remainder for reinvestment or other purposes.
