Ways to Give
Gifts of Publicly Traded Securities
A generous and tax-efficient way to give.
Donating shares, bonds, or mutual fund units directly to Les Violons du Roy allows you to:
- avoid paying capital gains tax
- receive a charitable receipt for the full market value of the securities transferred
💡 EXAMPLE: You purchased shares for $5,000 that are now worth $10,000:
- If you sell them, you pay tax on the $5,000 capital gain.
If you donate them, you pay no tax and receive a charitable receipt for $10,000.
