DonateStock

DonateStock is transforming charitable giving by making stock gifting easy and accessible for everyone. We’ve made it fast, safe and free to donate stock to charity. When you donate stock you can avoid capital gains tax on stock gifts while deducting the fair market value of the stock donation—resulting in substantial tax savings. It also allows the nonprofit to keep the proceeds from that would otherwise be paid to the IRS. When you donate stock to charity, everyone wins.

Vehicle Donation

Donate a car, truck, boat, or other vehicle to the Texas Veterinary Medical Foundation and help provide Texas pets with much needed veterinary care. Each vehicle donation helps TVMF provide veterinary care for the pets in our LEAP program, offer assistance to animals in need, and support veterinary students. Donating is easy. Simply click here to fill out the online form, or call 844-373-4483. We will arrange to have your vehicle towed at no expense to you and will provide you with a tax deductible receipt.
