Benefits of donating securities to charity:

Amplified impact

Flexibility in support

Your donation of securities can be directed towards specific projects, cover ongoing initiatives or even establish an endowment to support long-term goals. Your contribution will be utilized in a way that reflects your philanthropic vision.

Charitable tax receipt

You will receive a charitable tax receipt for the full market value of your donation, which can be used to reduce your taxable income, offering you tax credits while supporting our mission.

Tax benefits

When you transfer ownership of securities to ForAfrika, you avoid paying capital gains tax on the appreciated value of the securities. This allows you to donate more without incurring additional tax liabilities, making it a smart and impactful way to give.
