One of the biggest tax advantages in charitable giving continues to be the double benefit donors receive when donating appreciated assets to Friends Select School instead of cash. By giving appreciated assets (like stocks held for more than one year), you'll get a charitable tax deduction for the full value of the asset and avoid any capital gains tax that would have applied if you had sold the stock and made your gift in cash.
Note: It is important to notify Friends Select Development Office of the specifics of this transaction (stock name, share quantity, gift designation) so we can credit your gift appropriately. Please email or phone Mallory Burgan, Director of Advancement Services at (215) 561-5900 x3131 or malloryb@friends-select.org.
