DONATE STOCK TO THE MILLS ANNUAL FUND
The Mills PTO has arranged for the San Mateo Union High School District to accept STOCK DONATIONS. This presents a wonderful opportunity for the school and may allow you to make the most of your donation to the school.
TAX BENEFITS OF DONATING APPRECIATED STOCK
What: Currently, the IRS allows you to donate stock to Mills at it full value, and you get to take a tax deduction of the fully appreciated value of the donated stock. What does this mean? It means that the Mills can get a much greater donation amount by accepting stock donations.
How: The San Mateo Union High School District has a stock brokerage account. Your stock broker can transfer the stock directly to the District's stock broker. The District's stock broker will sell the stock and the District will send Mills a check for the amount the stock sold for. You'll get a statement letting you know how much the stock sold for.
