Donating shares
Donating your shares is a simple way to help us give seriously ill children the best chance and the best childhood possible.
Why donate your shares
- It's one of the most tax-effective ways to give money.
- If you're a UK taxpayer, you can claim income tax relief on the value of most stocks and securities when you donate them to a charity.
- Donating shares charitably does not give rise to either a gain or a loss for Capital Gains Tax purposes.
How to donate shares to charity
We work with ShareGift an independent UK registered charity (No. 1052686) which specialises in releasing money locked up in small shareholdings. ShareGift works by collecting together small lots of shares until there are enough to sell and then donating the resulting proceeds to a wide range of charities.
ShareGift can accept donations of any size and do not charge a fee to either GOSH Charity or the donor.
You can help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer by donating shares of any size or value to ShareGift and mentioning that you support GOSH Charity.
