3. Contact us to inform us of your gift. Please contact us in advance to notify us that you are gifting stock to Heartshare in order to receive your tax receipt.

4. Look for tax receipt and acknowledgement letter from Heartshare, so that you can claim the tax benefits of donating stock to Heartshare.

Did you know you can double or even triple your support for Heartshare, without even giving a dollar more? Many employers sponsor matching gift programs to match charitable contributions made by their employees. Gifts from employees’ spouses and retirees may also qualify for a match.

If you volunteer with us, your employer may also offer a volunteer grant program that will make a donation based on your volunteer hours.

Please contact Verlisa Pettway at 718-422-5905 or email verlisa.pettway@heartshare.org to see if you organization has a matching gift program.
