Donate Stock or Mutual Funds

Donating appreciated securities, such as stock or mutual funds, to Save the Children is a tax-wise approach for providing for children in need. Click here for a tutorial on Advantages of Donating Stock and Mutual Funds.

Try the stock donation calculator to see how your taxes may be affected by making a gift of stock rather than cash.

Save the Children prefers to receive undesignated gifts, allowing for the greatest flexibility in responding to children's evolving needs and priorities, but will also accept gifts designated to a specific purpose. Please contact us if you choose to designate your gift as changes in political situations or program capabilities may affect our ability to honor you request.
