Gifts of Stock:
A gift of securities provides an opportunity for tax savings while generously supporting the Academy. A gift of stock owned for more than one year entitles you to a charitable deduction for the full market value at the time the gift is made. If the stock has appreciated, you also avoid a capital gains tax on the appreciation in value. If you would like to discuss a securities gift to the Academy, please call (314) 533-8083.
