How can I donate stock to BACS?

Donating stock is safe and easy. Using the donation form on this page, making a charitable gift of stock is a quick, five-step process:

1. Select your stock ticker and confirm the company name in the donation form (EIN 94-1708069)
2. Enter your gift amount
3. Type in your email and address info for the receipt
4. Enter your brokerage account information
5. Virtually sign & make your gift!

Upon making a donation, you will receive an email notification from The Giving Block that your gift is being processed. In some circumstances, you may need to take action with your broker. The email will have instructions on any next steps.

Charitable donations of stock are processed safely and typically within 6-8 business days with The Giving Block in partnership with Renaissance Charitable Foundation. Processing times can be longer during December or when dealing with restricted stock.

What stocks does BACS accept?

We currently accept publicly traded, domestic common stock.

Are stock donations tax-deductible?

Yes! Stock donations are one of the most tax-efficient ways to give to charity. Your stock donation is tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law; if you pay taxes in the U.S. By making a charitable gift, you may also be eligible to significantly reduce what you would otherwise owe in capital gains taxes.

As with any tax-related questions, be sure to consult with a qualified, professional tax advisor.
