The benefits of giving appreciated assets

Gifts to the Jane Goodall Institute of stocks, bonds, or mutual funds that have appreciated in value since their purchase may be especially attractive to you under current tax laws. You can receive a charitable income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the asset, deductible up to 30% of your Adjusted Gross Income. You will also avoid any capital gains tax that would otherwise be due with the sale or transfer of the asset. And most important, making the transfer is simple.
