Donating
Stocks and Securities
Donations of appreciated securities can be a particularly tax-efficient way to support UNICEF. By transferring the securities directly to UNICEF USA, donors may be eligible for a charitable deduction and may avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation.
Before sending a gift of securities, please inform our staff of the transfer. This ensures your gift will be properly credited. To do this, please follow the following instructions:
- Email UNICEF USA’s Donor Revenue Management team at revenueprocessing@unicefusa.org and copy stockgiving@unicefusa.org as well as your regular point of contact at UNICEF USA, if applicable.
- In your email, please specify: stock/security name, ticker symbol, number of shares and the donor’s name.
- If you have questions, please contact the Donor Revenue Management team at revenueprocessing@unicefusa.org.
- If you need assistance, please email support@unicefusa.org or call 1-800-367-5437 (1-800-FOR-KIDS).
Gifts received without donor contact information will be handled consistent with our gift acceptance policy, including our policy on gift restriction requests.
According to IRS regulations, for transfers from brokerage account to brokerage account, the date of your gift corresponds to the date it arrives in our possession.
