When you give through appreciated or complex assets like stock, real estate, or a donor-advised fund, you’re not just supporting Girl Scouts of Western Washington's mission—you’re creating a lasting legacy that’s often smarter and more tax-efficient than cash gifts alone. Asset-based giving can reduce your capital gains, increase your charitable deduction, and, in some cases, eliminate taxable income entirely—all while fueling bold, life-changing experiences for girls* across our region.
You can give up to 20% more to your favorite charities through appreciating assets—all while minimizing your capital gains. You’ll take a fair market value deduction and provide more support for local Girl Scouts.
We’re here to partner with you. To explore the best giving strategy for your goals, or to notify us of an intended gift, please contact Tana Graedel at tgraedel@girlscoutsww.org to start your legacy journey today.
