Making a gift of appreciated stock is a straightforward process that can be beneficial for both you and The Academy of the Holy Cross. By donating appreciated stock, you not only avoid capital gains taxes but also maximize your charitable impact, allowing more resources to support the students and programs at Holy Cross. Consult with your financial advisor to understand the tax implications, find out next steps and ensure this method aligns with your financial goals. You’ll need to provide the stock’s details and specify that the gift is intended for Holy Cross. Please notify us of your gift, so we can properly acknowledge your generous contribution. For transfer instructions to make a gift of appreciated assets or more information, contact Cassandra Hoye at 301-962-1203.
 

Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match any charitable contributions made by their employees. Find out if your company has a matching gift by contacting them and boost the value of your donation!
