Stocks, bonds and mutual funds that have appreciated in value are among the most financially advantageous to ensure all people can partner with Habitat for Humanity of Kent County to have affordable, safe housing.
You may receive a charitable income tax deduction for the full market value of the stock up to a maximum of 30 percent of your adjusted gross income and avoid paying the capital gains tax on any increase in the value of the stock.
If you want to give a gift of stock or if you have questions about transferring stock to Habitat Kent, please contact us at give@habitatkent.org
