YEAR-END GIVING

  • If you are making an end-of-the-year gift to PCA, please be aware that it must be postmarked no later than December 31st.

STOCK TRANSFER

  • PCA gratefully receives gifts of appreciated assets, such as securities. Often a gift of appreciated stock offers tax benefits to the donor. Not only can the donor take a charitable deduction for the stock's current, full fair-market value, but capital gains tax can also be avoided on the appreciation.

  • Viewed another way, you may be able to give more than you thought possible when the tax ramifications are considered. The benefit to PCA is the same whether you give cash or stock, but the tax savings to yield is likely to be greater if you give appreciated stock.

PLANNED GIVING

  • Planned giving is a way to contribute to PCA using estate-planning vehicles.
