What to Give

You can establish a charitable fund, give to an existing fund, or become a Community Partner at The Cape Cod Foundation using a variety of assets.

Cash Gifts
This is the simplest way to make a donation.

Publicly Traded Stock Gifts
Gifts of appreciated securities are an excellent way to give. In addition to avoiding capital gains, such gifts can be deducted at full fair market value.

Mutual Funds
Mutual Funds may be gifted to The Cape Cod Foundation. If you would like to make a gift of mutual funds, please contact the Development Office and we will provide further instructions.

Real Estate
Gifts of real estate held more than one year can be used to establish charitable funds. These gifts can also offer many of same tax advantages as gifts of securities. Before The Cape Cod Foundation can accept such contributions, we must carefully review each gift to insure that certain conditions are met.

Planned Gifts
The Cape Cod Foundation offers a broad range of planned giving options.

Gifts of Securities
Please call Elizabeth Gawron or John Sargent at (508) 790-3040 for instructions to donate securities to the Cape Cod Foundation.  They are easily transferred from your client's account to the Foundation's account at Charles Schwab.  To avoid a possible capital gains tax, the securities must not be sold before the transfer.

Credit Card Donations
Credit card donations can be made by calling the office directly at 508/790-3040.
