The gift of stocks and securities is a welcome gift to The Center. A gift of appreciated stocks can help you avoid capital gains taxes. If you hold securities that have declined in value and would like to make a gift, it may be to your advantage to sell and perhaps generate a tax-deductible loss.

Information for Your Broker:

Instruct your broker to deliver the shares via DTC (a standard practice of electronic transfer).

Your broker will need the following information about The Center:
  • Brokerage Account: MidFirst Bank 11198
  • Contact: Kate Williams, Trust Officer | kate.williams@midfirst.com, 303-376-3885
  • Account Name: GLBT Community Center IMA

Your broker may also ask for the following information:

Tax ID#: 84-0738879
Contact: Kristina Sickles, 303-733-7743, ext. 104
