Dear friend,
As NILC enters the spring season, our team is focused on calling on Congress to swiftly pass a pathway to citizenship for immigrant youth. This critical work is only possible because of passionate supporters like you who fuel our organization.
Spring is also tax season, so I want to highlight an easy, tax-savvy way to give to NILC:
- If you own appreciated stock and you sell it, you generally pay capital gains tax on that value increase. But when you donate the stock directly to NILC, you do not have to pay the capital gains tax.
- Your gift to NILC may also be eligible charitable deduction for the full fair market value of the stock, if you’ve owned the appreciated stock for more than one year and you itemize deductions on your tax return.
These savings mean you can mobilize your assets to drive positive change across immigrant communities!
You can find more information about the many tax benefits and donate your appreciated stock to NILC in just 10 minutes on our new online stock donation platform.
Thanks for all you do to defend and advance the rights of immigrants with low incomes.
All my best,
Tiffanie Luckett
Senior Officer, Individual Giving
