Restricted Securities, Publicly Traded Securities

Restricted securities- A unique gift to the work of the Lord

Another opportunity to support World In Need International’s ministry through the Harvest Foundation is to give restricted securities, or securities that may have restrictions of sale.

By giving publicly traded restricted securities directly to the Harvest Foundation-as opposed to selling them and then donating the proceeds-you may be able to avoid capital gains tax and receive a deduction for their fair market value. Orlando Christian Community Foundation (OCCF), World In Need’s partner in administering the Harvest Foundation, assists you by reviewing the gift for transfer. OCCF also works toward removing restrictions for sale and facilitating the liquidation of the securities. The net proceeds are distributed to the Harvest Foundation.

If you have any questions or wish to start the process for your gift, please call World In Need International at 407-279-1470.
