Alumni and friends may use securities to make a gift to Regis High School. Often, the appreciation on securities is high in relation to their original cost. Stocks held more than one-year present a great opportunity as a gift-giving vehicle. Such a gift affords the donor both income tax and capital gains tax savings. The deduction is based on the fair market value on the day the stock is given to RHS and no long-term capital gains tax is incurred.
If a stock is held by your broker (in the street name), it may be transferred electronically, with minimum effort, to Regis High School.
Please advise us that you have authorized the transfer, so that we may give you the credit you deserve.
