Giving appreciated securities or mutual funds

You may enjoy substantial tax savings by transferring gifts of appreciated securities or mutual funds to Connecticut College. Gifts of long-term appreciated assets (securities owned for at least one year and one day) may be particularly beneficial in terms of tax savings. Note that it may take as long as three weeks for a gift of mutual funds to be transferred, so please plan accordingly.
