Ways To Give

Heart in hands

Make a bigger impact by donating securities

By donating long-term appreciated securities with a higher value than your original purchase price or cost basis, you can deduct the current fair market value as a charitable donation. So say you paid $1,000 for 50 shares of stock, or $20 per share. It has appreciated to $10,000, or $200 per share. When you donate the shares to the charity, you can deduct the $10,000 as a charitable contribution, even though you paid only $1,000 for those shares originally, resulting in a larger deduction than giving a $1,000 cash donation.

It’s easy! Call us at (530) 582-6277, and we’ll help you make a bigger impact to support what you care about at our hospital.
