There are tax advantages to contributing appreciated stock rather than cash: avoiding capital gains tax on the increase in value of the stock, and receiving an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock at the time of the gift. Consult your financial planner with questions. Sacred Heart Academy’s account is held at The Philadelphia Trust Company, managed by Matthew Walker.
