Making a stock donation is an impactful way to support Fort Collins Rescue Mission’s work to end homelessness in our community, one life at a time. Not only is it a simple process, but it also offers significant financial benefits for you and the Mission.
Benefits of Donating Stock
Donating stock is fast, safe, and easy to do. Fort Collins Rescue Mission partners with LPL Financial to enable our supporters to make stock donations quick and hassle-free. Simply share this information with your broker and ask them to transfer any appreciated stocks you want to donate directly into our brokerage account.
Did you know that when you donate stock, you can avoid the tax on the gain while deducting 100% of the value of your contribution? When the market is up, it’s the perfect time to lock in 2-3x the tax savings and the ability to give even more vs. donating cash. It’s a win-win for you and us, and for our homeless neighbors whose lives are change from your kindness.
Tax Benefits You May Receive
- No capital gain to be recognized
- Full value of stock is tax deductible
- May qualify for Homeless Contribution Tax Credit
- Stocks, Bonds and most Mutual Funds are accepted
Please note: We may not be able to accept some mutual funds directly into our account. If you wish to make a gift of mutual funds, please contact us.

Does Your Stock Donation Qualify for Additional Tax Credit Benefits?
Homeless Contribution Tax Credits (HCTC) allow a dollar-for-dollar reduction in state taxes owed by an amount equal to 25% of stock donations to Fort Collins Rescue Mission of $250 or more.
If your gift qualifies, you have to request the tax-credit in order to receive it, so be sure to notify us of your stock donation gift if you are interested in HCTC.
Please remember to always consult a tax professional for how your donations may impact your taxes.
