Have appreciated stocks in your portfolio? Consider donating them to charity instead of selling. 📈❤️ ✨ Benefits of Donating Stocks: Tax Savings: Deduct the fair market value if held for over a year. No Capital Gains Tax: Tax-exempt charities avoid capital gains tax on sales. 🚨 Important Tax Rules: Check IRS Publication 526 for charitable donations. Ensure the charity has non-profit status. Record donations on Schedule A with your 1040. 📜 For Donations Over $250: Charity must provide a written statement of the donation's value. For non-cash contributions over $500, attach Form 8283 to your 1040. Donations exceeding $5,000 require a qualified appraiser's letter.
