Instructions for outright gifts of:

Stocks & Bonds
Gifts of stocks and bonds to Barnard are easy to complete, qualify you for a charitable income tax deduction, and you will avoid paying capital gains tax on the transfer.

Mutual Funds
While mutual funds can make excellent charitable gifts and offer the same tax benefits as gifts of corporate stocks or bonds, transferring mutual fund shares can be problematic.
