THROUGH YOUR GIFT OF STOCK

Supporting DAV through gifts that take planning is essential to the continued success of the programs and services that we offer. It is because of the compassion and generosity of our donors, who are members and nonmembers alike, that we’re able to continuously meet the growing demand of veterans who need our support.

Over the years, DAV has had the privilege of working with hundreds of generous and caring individuals as they’ve sought out and found the best way to support the programs and services tailored to their personal financial situations. Through these gifts, DAV is able to continue to support the growing number of veterans who need assistance.

One of the easiest ways to make a planned gift to DAV is with a gift of appreciated stock. Making a gift via stock is truly a win-win. By donating a stock directly to DAV, you can take a tax deduction for the full market value of the stock, avoiding capital gains taxes and offsetting additional income.

This year alone, DAV has already received a record number of stock gifts, which have had a tremendous impact on the number of veterans we’ve been able to serve. One generous supporter reiterated on several occasions that she just wanted to “take care of our boys.” By giving stock, she was able to maintain her liquid assets and still make a substantial gift that will help countless deserving men and women. It is with the support of many that we are able to continue to meet the growing needs of yesterday’s soldiers.
