Support the Aquarium's Critical Work

Do you own assets such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds that have increased in value since they were purchased?

When you make a gift of appreciated securities, you enjoy a double benefit. You receive a tax charitable deduction for their full fair market value, and you pay no capital gains tax.*

The date that your shares are received in the Aquarium’s account will be the date of your gift.
