Did you know that there is a shortcut that is good for you and for Habitat? Contributing appreciated stock allows Habitat to receive the full value of your stock while allowing you to receive the full value as a contribution deduction--without paying capital gains tax. Using this direct shortcut keeps your adjusted gross income lower, preventing the phaseout of some deductions and credits. It's a win all the way around, so please keep Habitat for Humanity South Sarasota County in mind when reviewing your portfolio.
