Donate appreciated stock and receive tax benefits while supporting Sola Media.

Securities are shares of common stock in companies or units of mutual funds. Gifts of appreciated securities to Sola Media offer two compelling tax benefits:
<ul>
<li>First, you may claim a charitable income tax deduction for the full value of the gift on the date the gift is completed.</li>
<li>Second, by giving the appreciated securities directly to Sola Media, you can avoid paying the capital gains taxes that would result if you were to sell the securities.</li>
</ul>
Appreciated securities are those securities that are worth more today than when they were acquired. Capital gains are the difference between a security’s current value and the security’s cost basis, the value it had when it was acquired.
To make a gift to Sola Media of appreciated securities held by your bank or broker, advise your banker or broker of the number of shares of each security you wish to donate and instruct the bank or broker to call 1-877-876-0989 or submit your email here for transfer instructions:
<div data-gravity-form="17"></div>
The date of your gift for valuation purposes is the date on which the securities pass from your control, regardless of when you instructed your broker to transfer them. The amount of your gift for gift crediting purposes will be based on the mean market value of the high and the low share price of each security on the date the transfer appears in Sola Media’s brokerage account.
Tips
<ul>
<li>Don’t sell the security first. If you do, the IRS will impose capital gains tax on your sale, reducing your tax benefit.</li>
<li>Gifts from Mutual Funds may take up to 30 days to process at calendar year-end.</li>
<li>Securities must be held more than one year before transfer to gain the most favorable tax treatment.</li>
<li>For securities held by you in certificate form, please contact Sola Media at 1-877-876-0989 for instructions on how to send them securely.</li>
</ul>
In all cases, Sola Media is not giving tax advice and recommends consultation with your tax advisor.

Stock or Securities

Recommend a grant through your donor-advised fund directly to Sola Media.

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is like a charitable investment account that is set up for the sole purpose of supporting charities. Individuals can contribute cash, stocks, or other assets into the DAF and receive an immediate tax deduction. Those funds are invested for tax-free growth and the individual can recommend donations to charities of their choice over time.
Directed funds to Sola Media can be used to support all aspects of the work but cannot be used to fulfill a prior pledge agreement.

Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)

If you are 70½ or older, give directly from your IRA tax-free.

IRA Distributions: Using an IRA is a tax-smart way to make an impact for Sola Media. The IRA charitable rollover (also called the Qualified Charitable Distribution, or QCD) is a great way to make a tax-free gift and satisfy your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD). If you are not required to take an RMD but no longer itemize your deductions, then a QCD may be right for you as well.
How Do I Qualify?
The IRA charitable rollover (QCD) offers multiple benefits for making gifts from your traditional IRA.
<ul>
<li>You must be 70 ½ years or older at the time of the gift.</li>
<li>Gifts must go directly from your IRA to Sola Media.</li>
<li>Gifts must come from a traditional IRA account.</li>
<li>Gifts are tax free up to the annual IRS limit ($111,000 in 2026).</li>
</ul>
Benefits of an IRA Charitable Rollover Gift
<ul>
<li>If you don’t itemize deductions and are not yet required to take your RMD, a QCD offers all the benefits of an itemized income tax charitable deduction.</li>
<li>If you are age 73 or older and must take your RMD, a QCD can satisfy your RMD without increasing your income taxes.</li>
<li>You may direct your gift to a program or area of your choice.</li>
<li>It is a wonderful way to create an immediate impact on Sola Media.</li>
</ul>
How can I make an IRA Charitable Rollover? Contact your IRA administrator for their QCD distribution form and information on the procedure to make such a gift.

Bequest: A bequest is a gift provision in your will or revocable living trust. All assets, including cash, securities, real estate, and tangible personal property, may be transferred in part or in entirety to Sola Media at the end of your life. With the help of an advisor, you can include language in your will or trust specifying a gift be made to family, friends, or Sola Media as part of your estate plan. A bequest can be made in several ways: You can gift a specific dollar amount or asset, a percentage of your estate, from the balance or residue of your estate, or a beneficiary designation of certain assets. <a href="https://solamedia.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Sola-Media-Charitable-Bequest-Form.pdf">Download our charitable bequest instructions here.</a>
Retirement Plan Beneficiaries: Consider making Sola Media a beneficiary of your IRA, 401(k), 403(b) or other qualified retirement plan. The taxes applied to your retirement plan assets may be higher than you expect—in fact, using retirement assets to make a donation and leaving other assets to your heirs often enables you to give more to your heirs.
Insurance: You can designate Sola Media as a beneficiary in your insurance plan.
