Securities
To make a gift of appreciated securities that have been held for at least one year, inform your broker or bank and request that the Greenville Tech Foundation be notified at (864) 250-8497 to explain how the securities can be transferred to the Foundation. This gift may entitle the donor to an immediate income tax deduction for the current fair market value, as well as providing savings in capital gains tax. The value is based on the mean price using the average of the high and low of the security on the day it was transferred to the Foundation.
Gifts of appreciated assets are fully deductible up to 30 percent of the adjusted gross income for that year. Any excess of the 30 percent deduction may be carried forward for up to five additional years. For tax reasons, it is generally inadvisable to sell appreciated securities and then donate the proceeds to the Foundation. It's generally best to donate the appreciated securities instead.
Real Estate, Personal Property and Equipment
Gifts of real estate, personal property, equipment, office furniture, computers, and other in-kind items are counted at fair market value. Gifts valued at $5,000 or more require a qualified third-party appraiser, subject to applicable IRS rules and regulations. Appreciated assets must be held for at least one year before donated to a charity.
Matching Gifts
Corporate matching gifts count toward your contribution and may significantly increase the value of your total gift. Check with your company to determine if a gift from you or your spouse is eligible for a Matching Gift. If you are eligible, enclose the company matching gift form with your donation.
