Your support can make a significant impact
Give Stock Gifts
Without intervention, children experiencing homelessness can get trapped in a cycle of poverty and instability. Your stock gifts help interrupt this cycle with personalized academic support that empowers them to become active participants in their educational journey and reach their full potential.
Why Give Stock?
When you donate appreciated stock that you have owned for more than one year, you maximize your impact and your tax savings.
- Avoid capital gains tax you would otherwise owe if you sold the stock.
- Claim a charitable deducation for the full market value of the shares.
- Provide more support to Brightlane than if you sold the stock and donated the cash.
