Gifts of securities such as stocks, mutual fund shares, or other appreciated assets can be a great tax-efficient method for making a gift to Xavier. In most instances, you can take a tax deduction for the full market value of the gift and avoid any capital gains tax.

Please notify the Advancement Office of the gift by filling out our online securities transaction form or faxing a copy of our printable securities transaction form to (212) 924-0303, e-mailing it to Shane Lavin '03 (lavins@xavierhs.org), or calling regarding the details of the stock(s) being transferred as soon as the gift is made. This allows the gift to be identified when it arrives.

Stock donations should be transferred directly by your broker to Xavier’s brokerage account at Vanguard. The information is as follows:

Double or even triple your gift's impact! More than one thousand companies offer some level of corporate match for their employees' philanthropic interests. You will be recognized for the full amount of your own gift plus any resulting corporate match. Contact your company's personnel or human resources office to find out if your employer, or your spouse's employer, has a matching gift program. If you have questions or need further information, contact Jeanette Alvarez at (212) 924-7900, ext. 1581.

A bequest to Xavier can be a powerful expression of your faith in the future of the school. Through your will or trust you may support areas important to you on 16th Street or provide an unrestricted gift that will be applied to the school’s most urgent needs. You may also be able to take advantage of an estate-tax charitable deduction and, possibly, reduced estate settlement costs. Learn more.
