• What is a stock gift? 
  • Many donors choose to make gifts in the form of stocks, bonds or mutual fund shares. Donors of securities may realize tax benefits by giving long-term securities that have appreciated in value. 

• How do I donate stock? 
  • To transfer shares to the brokerage account of the beneficiary via electronic transfer, please email the Finance Director melissa@keeptahoeblue.org to receive specific instructions. 
  • Please include your name and contact information when transferring stock so the League can formally record and acknowledge your contribution.  

• What is a donor-advised fund? 
  • A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your favorite causes. If you have a donor-advised fund, DAF Direct enables you to recommend grants to the League to Save Lake Tahoe, directly from your DAF. 

• How does it work? 
  • Establish your DAF by making an irrevocable, tax-deductible donation to a public charity that sponsors a DAF program. 
  • Direct the investment allocation of the donated assets  
  • Recommend grants to the charities you support, with the option of being recognized or remaining anonymous. 

• Want to leave a legacy for future generations? 
  • Leaving even 1% of your estate can make a lasting difference for the clear blue waters of Lake Tahoe for generations to come. Plan your bequest to the League to Save Lake Tahoe or make changes to your existing will and claim your part in the history of Keep Tahoe Blue.
