Donation of Stocks & Securities
Turn Your Investments Into Hope
A gift of stock, mutual funds, ETFs, or other securities can be one of the most impactful ways to support cancer patients at Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre.
Many donors choose to donate appreciated securities because such gifts may provide tax advantages while helping maximize the value of their charitable contribution. By donating securities directly, you may be able to make a larger impact than with an equivalent cash gift.
