Donate Appreciated Stock

Maximize your impact by donating appreciated stock. You’ll receive a tax deduction for the full market value of the stock on the donation date, avoid paying long-term capital gains tax, and potentially bypass the Medicare surcharge, if applicable. To donate publicly traded stock, bonds or mutual funds, follow these simple steps:

  1. Email info@workingfood.org or call (352) 260-4458 to request our stock transfer details.
  2. Provide your stock broker or brokerage firm with our transfer information and ask them to initiate a direct electronic transfer of the stock to Working Food.
  3. Once your broker has the transfer instructions, contact us so we can properly acknowledge your generous gift. Please be ready to share:
    • The name of the security or securities being transferred.
    • The number of shares you’re transferring.
    • The name and phone number of your broker.

Make a Qualified Charitable Distribution from an IRA Account

Support our mission and maximize your impact by making a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA. It’s a tax-smart way to give, helping you lower your taxable income while advancing the work we do in the community.

Donate from a Donor-Advised Fund
