Gift of Stock

Donating appreciated stocks or securities to the Medicare Rights Center may sometimes be more advantageous than gifts of cash. Here’s why:

  • In some circumstances, you can deduct the full value of the stock as a charitable contribution.

Please consult your financial advisor to determine the tax implications of making a gift of stock to the Medicare Rights Center. You may donate a gift of stock electronically. If you do decide to donate stock, please notify the Medicare Rights Center or have your financial advisor or broker do so, providing your name, the name of the contributed stock, the number of shares, and the date of the transfer.
