MAKING A GIFT OF APPRECIATED STOCK

Though the stock market has retreated from its historic highs earlier this year, this still may be a good time to consider making a year-end gift of appreciated securities to the YWCA. Not only might you realize a tax benefit by gifting stock, bonds or mutual funds, you may also be able to increase the impact of your gift. You’ll certainly enjoy the knowledge that you’ve made a difference in the lives of women and children in the greater Toledo area.Contact your attorney or investment counselor about making a gift of appreciated securities. For additional information, contact the YWCA’s finance office at 419-241-3235, extension 157.
