Stocks & Securities Transfer
Gifts of securities — held by you, your bank, or your brokerage — offer significant tax advantages and are easy to make.
Habitat KC requires that gifts of securities be made via electronic transfer, rather than mailing actual securities certificates.
If you are giving a security, please verify with your broker that the security is eligible for electronic delivery over the Depository Trust Company (DTC) system. This works for most securities, but some securities have specific transfer instructions.
Please note that we will liquidate all donations of securities as soon as possible. The date of your gift is the date on which your electronic transfer is received into the Habitat KC account. The tax-deductible value of your gift is the average share price on the date of your gift multiplied by the number of shares given.
Once you’ve made a transfer, please contact our accounting department at (816) 924-1096 or by email at accountspayable@habitatkc.org to inform Habitat KC of the proposed donation and to ensure that you receive a prompt receipt of your gift for your tax records.
