A Smart Way to Give. A Powerful Way to Protect Nature.

Tell us about your upcoming securities gift

If you plan to donate securities to Rainforest Trust, please complete the form below to let us know your gift is on the way. Providing this information helps us identify your transfer, process your gift promptly, and ensure it is acknowledged appropriately. If possible, ask your broker to include your name in the transfer instructions or notes.

Donating appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual funds is a tax-efficient way to support Rainforest Trust’s mission to protect threatened tropical forests and wildlife. Depending on your individual tax situation, a gift of appreciated securities may allow you to claim a charitable income tax deduction while avoiding capital gains taxes. We encourage you to consult your financial or tax advisor to determine how these benefits may apply to you.

Please note that submitting this form does not initiate the transfer of your securities. You will still need to instruct your broker to complete the transfer. Our brokerage account information and transfer instructions are provided below the form.

If you are interested in using appreciated securities to make a planned gift, please contact Jennifer Clay at 1 (276) 330-2124, or email: jennifer.clay@rainforesttrust.org.
