Gifts of Appreciated Stock and Planned Gifts
The American Fund is happy to receive gifts of appreciated Stock. It is the policy of the board to sell stock as soon as it is received.
Planned gifts are popular because they can provide the donor with valuable tax benefits and/or income for life in addition to a substantial donation to the American Fund. In addition to Bequests (see Gift in your Will below) examples include a Charitable Remainder Trust and a Charitable Lead Trust, a Gift Annuity, a Pooled Income Fund, and a Retained Life Estate. If you are considering such a gift you should consult your tax adviser or attorney.
