Ways to Give
A Gift of Stock
If the value of your investments has risen, you might consider making a gift of stock to Historic Northampton.
It’s a simple process and can provide you with significant tax savings.
Here’s how it works: If you’ve held the shares of stock for more than a year, the value of the appreciated shares can be deducted as a charitable donation and you won’t pay any capital gains tax on them.
To request instructions for sending your gift of appreciated securities or learn more, please call Laurie Sanders, Co-director, at (413) 584-6011 or write to her at lsanders @ historicnorthampton.org.
