Use our convenient tool below to automatically advise a gift from your fund.

We’ve partnered with Double the Donation to make your gifts to the Tax Foundation as impactful as possible.
Transferring securities to the Tax Foundation allows you to make a gift and receive a charitable deduction equal to the full, fair market value of the securities. You pay no capital gains on your gift and neither does the Tax Foundation.
The best method of transferring these assets to the Tax Foundation is to contact your broker and electronically transfer them from your account to the Tax Foundation’s account. Avoid selling the assets and then making a gift of the proceeds, because this will trigger a capital gains liability for you.
In order for the Tax Foundation to acknowledge your gift and provide you with an IRS receipt, please take the following steps:
The following information, to be provided to your broker, will expedite the transference process:
Clearing Information: Vanguard DTC: 0062 Tax Foundation Account Number: 33234409 Tax Foundation EIN: 52-1703065
NEW: We are proud to announce the launch of the 1937 Society.

By establishing a charitable gift annuity with the Tax Foundation, you’ll receive annual income for life at higher rates than available through most CDs and savings accounts.

You receive dependable income for life and a tax deduction reducing your income taxes. And, your gift will help make the Tax Foundation even stronger in our fight to support sound tax policy.
