Gifts of Stock
Make a gift of stock
You can help Common Cause further our efforts to strengthen democracy with the gift of stock — and the value of stocks upon sale is usable as a tax-deductible credit.
While all gifts to the Common Cause Education Fund completed by December 31 qualify for tax deductibility for the calendar year, a gift of appreciated property such as stock, bonds and mutual funds can result in extra tax savings.
Listed below is the contact and routing information that you may use to make a gift of stock to the Common Cause.
