Turn Your Investments into Impact
By donating securities to POGO, you’re making a tax-advantaged gift that creates lasting impact for children and families facing childhood cancer. It’s an investment that pays off in more ways than one.
Why Donate Securities?
Donating securities is one of the most effective ways to support childhood cancer care while achieving your own financial goals. When you give publicly-traded stocks, bonds, or mutual funds, you avoid paying taxes on capital gains, making your gift go further than if you sold the securities and donated the proceeds. Plus, you’ll receive a charitable tax receipt for the full fair market value of the securities.
- Complete the Release for Securities Transfer Form: This form is used to authorize the transfer of your securities to POGO.
- Share the form with your financial advisor: Work with your advisor to initiate the transfer of your securities.
- Notify us: Let us know once the transfer has been initiated so we can track and acknowledge your donation.
Your Gift Matters
By donating securities, you’re directly supporting POGO’s mission to partner to achieve the best childhood cancer care system for children, youth, survivors, and their families and healthcare teams. From a child’s diagnosis, through treatment and into survivorship, POGO is here for kids with cancer, for now, for life.
