Donate Stock

Donating stock is safe and easy. Using the donation form on this page, making a charitable gift of stock is a quick, five-step process:

1. Select your stock ticker and confirm the company name in the donation form
2. Enter your gift amount
3. Type in your email and address info for the receipt
4. Enter your brokerage account information
5. Virtually sign & make your gift! 

Upon making a donation, you will receive an email notification from The Giving Block that your gift is being processed. In some circumstances, you may need to take action with your broker. The email will have instructions on any next steps.

Charitable donations of stock are processed safely and typically within 6-8 business days with The Giving Block in partnership with Renaissance Charitable Foundation. Processing times can be longer during December or when dealing with restricted stock.

Stock fundraising is a  critical donation revenue driver for nonprofit organizations like El Sistema USA. 

With over 60% of Americans owning stock and billions in stock donated to US charities every year, stock donations can make a wide-reaching impact through philanthropy. Studies show that nonprofits that accept noncash assets typically grow 50% faster than those that do not and they grow 66% faster when they accept non-cash securities such as stock.

Donating stock is also one of the most tax-efficient ways for individuals to support causes that matter to them.
