Donating Stock

Giving stock is a powerful way to support the Greenways Foundation while maximizing your tax benefits. By donating appreciated securities, you may be able to avoid capital gains taxes and make a larger impact on trails, connectivity, and community access across Indiana.

Why Donate Stock?

Donating stock can be one of the most tax-efficient ways to give. Benefits may include:

  • Avoiding capital gains tax on appreciated assets

  • Receiving a charitable deduction for the full fair market value

  • Making a larger gift than you might with cash

We recommend consulting with your financial advisor to understand how a stock gift fits into your overall giving strategy.

How It Works

Making a stock donation is simple:

  1. Complete the Stock Transfer Form
    This step is essential so we can properly identify and acknowledge your gift.

  2. Initiate the Transfer
    Work with your broker to transfer shares to the Greenways Foundation.

  3. Confirmation & Acknowledgment
    Once received, we will confirm your gift and provide documentation for your records.

Important: Let Us Know About Your Gift

Because stock transfers do not always include donor information, it’s important that you complete the form before initiating your transfer. This ensures we can:

  • Properly credit your donation

  • Send you a tax acknowledgment

  • Thank you for your support
