The Caring for Carcinoid Foundation accepts planned donations.  Planned donations can take the form of will bequests, annuities, and other types.

Securities Donations

The Caring for Carcinoid Foundation accepts securities donations.  Securities donations are often tax-advantageous to the donor.  For example, if a donor donates appreciated securities, such a donor generally receives a tax deduction on the entire market value of the appreciated securities.  In addition, the donor avoids federal and state tax on any long-term capital gains of the appreciated securities.

We recommend that you contact your financial advisor and family attorney to decide if you want to make this type of donation.
