Donating appreciated securities can help you make a meaningful difference without drawing directly from your bank account, and neither you nor the Conservancy will pay taxes on the gains for appreciated assets you contribute.<\/p>\n<p>Many donors find they can meet their charitable goals while enjoying potential tax advantages through gifts of stock. This type of giving may allow you to avoid capital gains taxes and potentially receive a tax deduction for the full market value of the asset. At the same time, the Conservancy can put the full value of your gift to work protecting wildlife, restoring habitats, advancing science and education, and strengthening conservation efforts across Southwest Florida.<\/p>\n<p>Your generosity ensures cleaner water, healthier ecosystems and a stronger natural environment for our community.<\/p>\n<p>Please contact your financial, legal or tax adviser for guidance on the specific benefits of this type of donation. If you have questions or would like to notify us of an upcoming stock gift, please contact Jan Fernandez, Director of Development at 239-403-4200 or <a href=\"mailto:janf@conservancy.org\">janf@conservancy.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n\t\t<h6>\n\t\t\tHow You can help\n\t\t<\/h6>\n\t\t<h2>\n\t\t\tHelp protect our water, land and wildlife\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/conservancy.org\/support-us\/membership\/\" target=\"_self\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/conservancy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icon-membership.png\" alt=\"Become a Member\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Become a Member<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Membership helps support our work and gets you free membership to the Nature Center and many other perks.
