Stocks and Bonds

If you have stocks, bonds, or mutual funds that have appreciated in value, you may realize savings in capital gains and other taxes by giving those assets to MCPHS.

Gifts of appreciated long-term securities, including stocks, bonds and mutual fund shares, can generate very favorable tax benefits for a donor. At the time of a gift, the donor receives a tax deduction equivalent to the fair market value of such securities when owned for more than 12 months.

Securities shares can be transferred electronically by your financial advisor to the College's broker. Alternatively, certificates can also be mailed unsigned, with signed stock powers sent separately, to:

Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences
Office of College Advancement
179 Longwood Avenue
Boston, MA 02115

To make a gift, or to learn more about gifts of securities or bonds, please call 800.322.1124 or e-mail development@mcphs.edu
