Take Stock in Averett University

Millions of people each year don’t donate appreciated securities because they think the process is too complicated.

In fact, donating appreciated stock to Averett is simple, and it’s smart.

Donors who make gifts by check when they could donate appreciated stocks are collectively forfeiting more than $2.2 billion .

Here’s how it works. You may have stocks or fund shares that you brought for $5,000 that are now worth $10,000. By donating the securities to Averett, you receive the same tax deduction for the $10,000 gift to Averett as you would by writing a check. You also avoid having to pay the capital-gains tax on their price appreciation.

Let us show you how donating your appreciated stock is a smart way of giving.
