Stock Gifts

 
Gifts of stock can sometimes be more advantageous for the donor than gifts of cash. When you give appreciated securities to Finlandia Foundation National, you can benefit in three ways:
 
  • Your gift may be worth more than your initial investment.
  • You avoid paying capital gains taxes.
  • If the stock has gained in value since it was acquired and it has been held long term, you may deduct the current fair market value of the stock from the current year's taxable income. 
 
In order to acknowledge this gift appropriately, please notify us of your gift and send us your name, the stock name, the number of shares and the date of transfer. If you have any questions about gifts of stock or other ways to give to Finlandia Foundation National, please contact Christina Lin, at 626-795-2081 or email us at office@finlandiafoundation.org.
