Stocks

Donations of appreciated stock may be a tax-wise way to make a contribution. You may be able to make a larger donation than with a cash contribution and these gifts usually provide savings on capital gains taxes. Depending upon your individual tax situation, you may receive an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stocks. Be sure to discuss this type of donation with your financial advisor or broker.

In order to facilitate the transfer of securities, please contact Stephen Pezzola '74, President at (510) 234-4433, ext. 1110 or spezzola@salesian.com.

*Publicly traded securities - Gifts of stock and other publicly traded securities will be valued at the mean of their market values on the date the donor relinquishes control of the securities. Neither losses nor gains realized by the sale of the securities after receipt, nor brokerage fees or other expenses associated with the transaction are to affect the value recorded. The policy of Salesian College Preparatory is to immediately sell all donated securities.

Real Estate

Given the dynamic real estate market over the past several years, a donation of real estate may be beneficial to you. Salesian College Preparatory will consider on a case-by-case basis accepting the gift of a home, vacation property, condominium, rental units, undeveloped land, or other real estate.

To discuss donations of real estate, please contact: Marc Colelli, Chief Financial Officer at (510) 234-4433, ext. 1102 or mcolelli@salesian.com
