Gifts of appreciated stock are a great way to contribute to Health Equity International in a tax-advantaged way.  Donors are able to claim a charitable deduction for the full market value of the stock and avoid capital gains taxes that would normally be due upon the stock’s sale. For information on the potential benefits relating to your specific situation, please consult a qualified tax attorney or financial planner.

Stock certificates

If you hold stocks or bonds in certified form, you may send the certificates by certified mail (with return receipt requested, if you would like to receive proof of its delivery). Do not endorse the certificate.

Health Equity International can provide a stock power (please contact us to request one), or your broker can provide one for you. Please sign the stock power as your name is listed on the stock certificate. Please include a dated letter that describes the stock and contains your signature as it appears on the stock power and stock certificate. Upon receipt, your stock gift will be recorded and the certificate sent to our broker for immediate disposition.
