Gifts of Mutual Funds

Donating mutual funds that have increased in value is the most tax-efficient way to make a charitable gift to Living Sky Wildlife Rehabilitation, Inc. Your broker can simply transfer the funds from your account to our charity account.

Benefits of Donating Appreciated Mutual Funds

• By donating mutual funds directly to Living Sky Wildlife Rehabilitation without cashing it in, you avoid having to pay capital gains tax on those funds that have increased in value.
• You will also receive a tax receipt for the closing price of the funds on the day the funds are received in the Living Sky Wildlife Rehabilitation account. This tax receipt can be used to offset your personal income tax.

Please contact us in advance with any questions or for our account details needed to complete the transfer.
