Donate Shares Calculator

This Donate Shares calculator compares the tax advantage of donating shares as part of your charitable giving plans. Since there is no capital gains tax on donations of publicly listed securities, you may be better off donating shares directly to a charitable organization rather than first selling them and donating the proceeds.

Donating shares

Compare the difference between selling shares and donating the cash proceeds to donating the shares directly.

This Donate Shares calculator considers where you live, your taxable income, proceeds of the sale and the adjusted cost base. Donating securities is a tax-efficient way to donate to help the causes that are important to you.
