Gift of Stocks and Securities

Giving appreciated investments (shares of stock) is an excellent way to both support our mission and potentially save on your taxes. Donors take a deduction for the full market value (with some limits) and don’t pay capital gains on the appreciation.

Give from your IRA or Retirement Plan

Make an IRA charitable rollover disbursement. If you are over 70-1/2 your gift counts towards your minimum mandatory distribution, and is reduces your taxable income by the value of your gift.

The closest sound to me is my handsaw cutting through the wood of a small Douglas fir tree, the next sound the wind bustling in the canopy overhead and through the tall dried grasses surrounding me, more distant the sounds of laughter and conversation from those working around me, beyond that the consistent call of the foghorn from the bay. These sounds surround me as I work in the Ocean Song grassland, homeland of the southern Pomo, alongside the twenty-five other individuals who participated in the Queer Forestry and Fire Program. These are the sounds of community, connection, and care for the land and each other that we created in this program.
