Gifts of Stock

Mediation and Restorative Services accepts gifts of stock, which we sell immediately to support our work. Donors often obtain significant tax benefits by donating stock because under the current tax laws, you can avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation of donated stock and are entitled to a tax deduction of the full fair market value of the gift. We recommend that you consult a tax professional for specific advice about your situation.

In accordance with IRS regulations, you will receive an acknowledgement for tax purposes listing the number of shares donated and the value of the stock as of the date the shares are received in our account.

Donor-Advised Funds

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a philanthropic giving vehicle that provides an immediate tax benefit to you, and allows you to grant funds to charities of your choice. Think of it as a charitable savings account — you put money in the DAF, any potential growth is tax-free, and then you can recommend where your assets go in the form of grants. Gifts given through DAFs are essential to Mediation and Restorative Services work, and have a lasting impact on our region’s ecosystems and our community’s well-being.

How To Support Mediation and Restorative Services Through Your Daf

Contact your sponsoring financial or community foundation to recommend a grant to Mediation and Restorative Services. Checks should be made out to Mediation and Restorative Services and mailed to:

Land And Easements

One of Mediation and Restorative Services primary missions is to protect land for our future generations. A gift of land or a conservation easement is perhaps the most direct way of supporting our organization. Due to our status as a nonprofit, land donations can have significant tax benefits. If you are considering a gift of land or an easement, we would like to discuss your goals and the details of your property.
