The Stock Market at Record High

The stock market has climbed to record highs. Use it to make a gift to transform lives through education!

Do you have some highly appreciated stock?  Our stock donation program allows you to donate stock to us as a qualifying charity and only declare the purchase cost as income, not the appreciated value.  Meanwhile, your gift has the full impact of the appreciated value for Friends of Ngong Road. Just click here for instructions on how to donate your stock.

Are you over 70 ½? The Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) provision allows individuals of at least 70 ½ years of age to distribute funds from an individual retirement account (IRA) to a qualifying charity without the transfer qualifying as income has been made permanent by recent legislation. Consider using this tax-free option to make a gift to Friends of Ngong Road to transform lives through education. Consult your financial advisor or the financial institution that holds your IRA to learn if this is appropriate for you and to find out what special processing is required to make a QCD.
