Both you and Trees For Tomorrow benefit from a donation of appreciated securities. If you transfer appreciated securities to Trees For Tomorrow, Trees For Tomorrrow can sell the securities and use the proceeds to provide scholarships to students.

You will receive a gift credit and an immediate income tax deduction for the fair market value of the securities on the date of transfer, no matter what you originally paid for them and you will pay no capital gains tax on the securities you donate. You can even direct your gift to a specific school group or program.
