Stock Gifts

Insurance Policy Beneficiary
Donors may make PDF a beneficiary of a life insurance policy—one that no longer serves its original purpose, one that names PDF as a contingent beneficiary, or one purchased specifically to benefit PDF.
Donor Advised Funds
You can easily make a DAF gift to PDF through your DAF holder or use DAF Direct to make a gift through your DAF at a large financial institution like Fidelity, Schwab or BNY Mellon.
Charitable IRA Rollovers
Are you 70 ½ or older? If so, a Charitable IRA Rollover could be an excellent way to support the social justice without having to pay income taxes on the money. The SECURE Act increased the MRD (Minimum Required Distribution) age from 70½ to 72. The age for a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), however, remains at 70½. Learn more.
