Donating securities and stock is a tax-efficient way to support Yinghua Academy’s mission while making a significant impact on our students. When you transfer appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds directly to Yinghua, you can avoid capital gains taxes and receive a charitable deduction for the full market value of the assets. This allows you to maximize your gift and reduce your tax burden at the same time. Stock donations can be an ideal way to contribute to Yinghua’s future and support essential programs, scholarships, and resources for our students.
Another powerful giving option is a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from an IRA. If you are 70 ½ or older, you can make a tax-free distribution directly from your IRA to Yinghua Academy. This can count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD) while reducing your taxable income. QCDs are a simple way to make a charitable gift without facing the typical tax implications of withdrawing from your retirement account. For many donors, this is a strategic way to meet financial goals while supporting Yinghua’s mission.
We’ve made it easy for you to donate stock and securities. Please download our stock donation form here and consult with your financial advisor or broker to initiate the transfer.
