Donate Stocks
One of the biggest tax advantages in charitable giving continues to be the double benefit donors get when donating appreciated assets to United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey (UWGPSNJ) instead of cash. By giving appreciated assets (like stocks held for more than one year), you'll get a charitable tax deduction for the full value of the asset and avoid any capital gains tax that would have applied if you had sold the stock and made your gift in cash.
Please provide the following information in your request when directing your broker to transfer your shares to UWGPSNJ:
- United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey (UWGPSNJ)
- 1800 John F. Kennedy Blvd., Suite 1200
- Philadelphia, PA 19130
- EIN: 23-1556045
- UWGPSNJ's DTC Number: 2139
- UWGPSNJ's Account Name: United Way GPSNJ Gift IM
- UWGPSNJ's FBO Account Number: 2633-02-4/0
It is important to notify UWGPSNJ of the specifics of this transaction (stock name, share quantity, gift designation) so we can credit your gift appropriately. Please contact us at 215-665-2441 or ksullivan@unitedforimpact.org.
