4. STOCK TRANSFER

In interested in donating stock? We can help. Click on the link below for our stock donation form. Donation of appreciated stock is a great way to support Junior Achievement and also save on your taxes. Typically you not only get a charitable deduction for the amount of your gift, but you also avoid having to pay taxes on any gains since acquiring the stock (please consult you tax advisor for specifics related to your situation). JAUM puts your stock donation to work quickly – we do not hold your stock, but rather sell it immediately and put the proceeds to work supporting our financial literacy programming. If you are over 70 1/2 and would like to donate from your IRA (must be done prior to the end of 2009), please contact your IRA trustee for the proper forms to make the donation to JAUM.

5. MATCHING GIFT FORM

If your company offers a matching gift program, please consider including the form with your contribution. This will enable JA to reach even more students with your gift.
