Gifts of Stock & Other Assets

Support Northwest Public Broadcasting by donating appreciated securities — a smart, tax-friendly alternative to writing a check.

Great Northern Railway Certificate

Why Donate Stock?

When you donate appreciated stock or other securities, you can:

  • Avoid paying capital gains tax on the increased value of your investment.
  • Claim a tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock.

Example:
If you donate stock worth $1,000 that you originally purchased for $100, your out-of-pocket cost is only $100. Plus, you may be able to deduct the entire $1,000 from your taxable income, reducing your overall cost even more.
