Appreciated Securities
A gift of appreciated securities – stocks, bonds or mutual funds – doubles the benefit to you. You will pay no capital gains tax on the transfer and you can claim a charitable income tax deduction on your income tax return for the full fair market value of the securities (up to 30% of your adjusted gross income), no matter what you initially paid for the securities. Point will receive the full value of the securities, undiminished by taxes. Click here to download a simple instruction sheet on how to make a stock transfer to Point.

Matching Gifts
Matching gifts are a great way to involve your company with the important work of Point Foundation. Inquire with your employer if there is a way that your personal gift to Point can be matched. Most companies who have these programs will match your gift dollar-for-dollar, doubling your impact.
