A gift of securities to Eastern King Health Foundation can completely eliminate the steep capital gains tax you would incur if you were to sell these assets and donate the proceeds. You receive a tax receipt for the fair market value of the securities at the time we receive them. The combination of tax-exempt capital gains and the charitable tax credit for the donation may allow you to provide a significant gift at a relatively low cost. Gifts of flow-through shares are another tax smart option and provide additional tax benefits.
