I assume that the already $ hurting fellowship is probably hurting even more in the present scenario. Do you know if the church has any kind of brokerage firm it deals with? The reason ask is because in canada if we donate shares in kind to charitable organization, that org can cash them in at anytime and not have to pay capital gains. If I cashed them in to donate money, i would have to pay capital gains tax to govt which would greatly decrease the amount of the contribution. I know your capital gains taxes are less than ours, but I dont know if the IRS has similar system. if they do, do congregants know that? It can make abig difference in that bottom line.

A gift of appreciated securities is treated the same way here. Neither the donor nor the church would be liable for the capital gains tax.
