Stock, Bonds or Mutual Fund Gifts

Giving stock, bonds and mutual fund shares to charities (501(c)(3)) and social welfare organizations (501(c)(4)) can be an effective strategy for donors looking to make a significant philanthropic impact while unlocking additional tax benefits over cash donations. Benefits to the donor are different for each type of 501(c).  

Your tax accountant or financial planner should advise you about your specific situation.

Move to Amend is a 501(c)(4) tax exempt organization given the privilege of unlimited lobbying; therefore donations to 501(c)(4) organizations are NOT tax deductible.  A significant portion of donations made to Move to Amend are used in lobbying efforts focused on advancing the Move to Amend “We the People Amendment.” 

Donations made to Democracy Unlimited 501(C)(3), a related organization, ARE tax deductible. Education is the charitable purpose of Democracy Unlimited.  Lobbying is strictly limited by the IRS in 501(c)(3) organizations.  One Program of Democracy Unlimited is the Move to Amend Education Fund.  This Program makes grants to Move to Amend to cover a significant portion of the cost of educational activities related to building democracy and ending corporate rule.
