As a supporter of Felsted School, you will know how hard we work to ensure that every penny we raise goes as far as it can for the cause. But, have you considered giving shares? Over £100 million in shares is donated to charity each year and as a donor you can benefit from as much as 40% in income tax relief at the same time.
How does it work?
Whether you have a few windfall shares sitting and gathering dust or a more sizeable donation, giving shares is not at all complicated. A share donation to Felsted School benefits taxpaying donors with income tax relief and exemption from Capital Gains Tax. You are also entitled to claim tax relief for any associated costs, such as brokers’ fees.
What do you need to do?
You can donate shares directly to Felsted School or, having confirmed the arrangement in advance, sell the shares on Felsted School behalf and simply donate the proceeds. You might want to discuss the options with your financial adviser or accountant. If you are considering giving us shares, please contact us today.
