There are many advantages to making a gift of appreciated securities to Nashville Public Radio:
- You may receive an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock at the time of the gift (provided you have held the stock for more than one year).
- You may avoid paying capital gains tax on the increased value of the stock.
- Your donation will support the programs you enjoy on Nashville Public Radio!
(Please contact your tax advisor for information on the specific implications for your situation.)
The easiest way to make this kind of gift to Nashville Public Radio is to have your broker electronically transfer the stock from your account to ours. Please contact Molly Nicholas at 615-760-2037 to get Nashville Public Radio’s brokerage account information for transferring a gift of stock.Â
When stocks are transferred to our account, donor information is not given, so we can only provide you with a receipt of your donation if you notify us. Thank you!
