Giving Stock

If you wish to support Alaska Public Media, and you hold stock as part of your financial portfolio, a gift of that stock could be a great option for you. Giving stock which has been held more than 12 months may offer you considerable tax advantages. You may avoid paying capital-gains tax on the increase of your stock and receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the stock on the date of the gift.

Brokers and financial institutions do not automatically share donors’ personal info, so if you intend to donate stock, please inform us of the details ahead of time at membership@alaskapublic.org. If you provide your name, email, stock to be donated, and approximate date of donation, we can be sure to credit the correct account.
