Donate Stock to Support Jewish Miami

Looking for a simple way to make a philanthropic impact on our Jewish community? Consider gifts of stock through The Foundation of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation. “Donating stock to our Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) at The Foundation is incredibly simple,” said Jeffrey Levine, a Foundation Board member. “Not only do my wife and I receive the full fair-market value tax deduction, but we also avoid paying capital gains taxes.” Donating appreciated assets, including stocks, enables you to receive an immediate income tax deduction based on the fair market value of the securities; avoid paying capital gains tax on appreciated securities held for more than one year; establish your legacy separately from family money, will or estate plan; and have investment income added to your fund and grow tax-free. To learn more about gifting stock, click here or contact Scott Kaplan at [email protected] or 786.866.8623.
