Donate Stocks or Mutual Funds
Donating to the Pat Tillman Foundation through a gift of stocks or mutual funds may be a great option for you. If a stock has appreciated in price and was held for more than a year, a direct stock donation eliminates the capital gains tax, and you will receive a charitable tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock. This maximizes your donation amount since your potential capital gains tax liability is included in the donation. Please check with your financial advisor to confirm that a stock or mutual fund donation is right for you.
