Donate Gifts of Appreciated Stock
Donations of appreciated stock are a smart way to support our mission while also getting important tax benefits. Have your financial advisor transfer the shares directly to Congressional Cemetery to maximize the impact of your gift using these simple instructions:
Contribute though a Donor Advised Fund (DAF)
Use the funds you have already set aside to support our mission. Contact your financial advisor to recommend a grant to Congressional Cemetery from your DAF.
IRA Rollover Donations
If you are 70 ½ or older, you can support our mission through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). By rolling these funds directly from your IRA to Congressional Cemetery, you can make an impact here while enjoying significant tax benefits.
