Explore the below excellent tax-advantaged options to help those experiencing homelessness. Consult your qualified tax advisor to see if the below giving options are right for you. Crossroads' Tax ID Number is 05-0259094.

Donate Appreciated Securities

Donating appreciated stocks, bonds or mutual funds share is a tax-advantaged way to help those experiencing homelessness.

By donating gifts of stock or other assets that you have held for more than one year to Crossroads, you will receive the same income tax savings as a cash gift, but with the added benefit of eliminating capital gains taxes on the transfer, which can be as high as 20%.

To request our current stock transfer instructions, please contact our director of donor engagement at scarney@crossroadsri.org or (401) 277-4328.

A charitable IRA rollover can be used to satisfy required minimum distributions.
