Why does FINCA accept stock?

A gift of stock or other appreciated asset will further FINCA’s efforts to eradicate global poverty through lasting solutions that help people build assets, create jobs and raise their standard of living.

With over 60% of Americans owning stock and billions in stock donated to US charities every year, stock donations can make a wide-reaching impact. Studies show that nonprofits that accept noncash assets typically grow 50% faster than those that do not, and they grow 66% faster when they accept non-cash securities such as stock.

Donating stock is also one of the most tax-efficient ways for individuals to support causes that matter to them.

Which stocks do you accept?

We accept publicly traded, domestic common stock.

Are stock donations tax-deductible?

Yes! Stock donations are one of the most tax-efficient ways to give to charity. If you pay taxes in the United States, your stock donation is tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. By making a charitable gift, you may also be eligible to significantly reduce what you would otherwise owe in capital gains taxes.

There are special rules for valuing a charitable gift of stock. The value is determined by taking the mean of the high and low stock price on the date of transfer. Mutual fund shares are valued using the closing price for the fund on the date of transfer.

As with any tax-related questions, be sure to consult with a qualified, professional tax advisor.

Refund Policy

All stock donations made via The Giving Block widget are non-refundable. We cannot provide a refund if you change your mind or made the wrong decision.
