Donating Stocks and Mutual Funds
Gifts of appreciated securities, such as stocks and mutual funds, that have been held for over a year are a wonderful way to support Piedmont while potentially realizing important benefits for yourself:
- Reduce or avoid paying capital gains tax
- Receive an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the securities
- Rebalance your investment portfolio
- Electronic transfer from your bank or brokerage is easy!
How to Donate Stock
Instruct your broker to transfer shares to Piedmont Healthcare Foundation (Federal Tax ID: 58-1272768). Your broker should contact Beverly Glenn at SunTrust Bank by calling (404) 724-3556 or via email at beverly.glenn@suntrust.com.

How to Donate Mutual Funds
Contact your mutual fund company about the process of transferring mutual fund shares. A special form and signature guarantee will likely be required by them to initiate a charitable transfer. Contact Beverly Glenn at SunTrust Bank by calling (404) 724-3556 or via email at beverly.glenn@suntrust.com to complete the transfer. Because the process of transferring mutual funds typically takes 2-4 weeks, we recommend beginning end-of-year transfers in November.
