Outright Gift of Appreciated Securities
Receive a Tax Deduction for Using These as Gifts
Securities and mutual funds that have increased in value and have been held for more than one year are one of the most popular assets to use when making a gift to The Juilliard School. Making a gift of these assets to Juilliard offers you the chance to support the work of the School while realizing important benefits for yourself.
When you donate appreciated securities or mutual funds you have held more than one year, you can reduce or even eliminate federal capital gains taxes on the transfer. You may also be entitled to a federal income tax charitable deduction based on the fair market value of the securities at the time of the transfer.
Securities are most often used to support Juilliard in the form of:
An outright gift. When you donate securities to Juilliard, you receive the same income tax savings that you would if you wrote a check, but with the added benefit of eliminating capital gains taxes on the transfer, which can be as high as 20 percent.
A transfer on death (TOD) account.* By placing a TOD designation on your brokerage or investment account, that account will be paid over to one or more persons or charities after your lifetime.
