Gifts of Real Estate and Securities
Gifts
of real estate can have special benefits for both the donor and the
recipient. You may give real estate as a current gift and receive a
charitable deduction for the full fair market value of the gift. Gifts
must meet certain criteria in order to be accepted by the university.
Transferring
securities, either stocks or bonds, allows you to make a gift to Furman
and receive a charitable deduction equal to the full fair market value.
You also may avoid paying a capital gains tax on your charitable
contribution. For more information concerning gifts of real estate or
securities, please contact
Betsy Moseley, Senior Planned Giving Officer and Director of Special Projects, at (864) 294-3491.
