Maximize your investment

‍

By contributing appreciated securities, you can make a significant impact on education and workforce outcomes in Dallas County while benefiting from tax advantages. When you invest using stock, you avoid paying capital gains taxes on the appreciation, and you can deduct the full fair-market value of the stock on the date of your investment. This allows you to maximize your investment while supporting systemic change that benefits students across our region.

Why Contribute Stock to Commit?

• Tax Efficiency: Contributing stock that has increased in value since you bought it is one of the most tax-efficient ways to give. You can avoid capital gains taxes while taking a charitable deduction for the full market value of the stock.
• Maximize Your Impact: Your stock contribution enables Commit to continue its vital work in improving educational outcomes, from Pre-K enrollment to post-secondary attainment and workforce alignment. By supporting Commit’s data-driven initiatives, you are helping break cycles of poverty and building a brighter future for the region.
