Donate Stock

Gifts of stock are a great method of charitable giving. Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis accepts donations of stock in a publicly-traded company as payment for membership and from Friends of Impact. All stock gifts are tax deductible as allowed by law.

Electronic transfer is the easiest method of gifting stock when a donor maintains holdings in a brokered account. Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis can assist you with this process at any time and we have carefully described the steps to be taken in gifting stock. Please review and follow the instructions in the documents below:

Gifts of Stock for Membership in Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis:

Please note the following for Membership Gifts of Stock:

  • The minimum value of the gift per membership year needs to be $250, plus $20.00 for the transaction fee (total $270.00), as valued at average of the highest and lowest price on the date of the receipt of the stock by Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis.
  • Proceeds in excess of your intended donation will go to fund operating expenses of Impact 100 Greater Indianapolis, Inc. and will not be returned to the donor.
  • In the event the value (valued as indicated above) is less than your intended donation, the donor will be responsible for providing an additional contribution so that the total gift equals the full pledged amount including all transaction fees (i.e., if an additional gift of stock is made to make up the difference, there will be an additional transaction fee of $20 that must also be covered).
