Making a gift of securities or mutual funds to Panthera offers you the chance to support our conservation work while realizing important benefits for yourself. When you donate appreciated securities or mutual funds you have held for more than one year to Panthera in support of our mission, you can reduce or even eliminate federal capital gains taxes on the transfer. You may also be entitled to a federal income tax charitable deduction based on the fair market value of the securities at the time of the transfer.

We encourage you to consult your financial advisor to evaluate the tax advantages available when donating appreciated stock. All gifts of stock and marketable securities made to Panthera should be sent to the following location:

Bank: JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.
For Account of: Panthera Corporation 
Account Number: D28592004
DTC Participant #: 0902

To ensure your incoming stock transfer is attributed to you, it is important to take the following steps:

  • Donors must request that your brokers include your name in the reference field of the stock transfer sent to Morgan Stanley.
  • Donors or their brokers must inform Panthera of the incoming gift, including the type of securities and the number of shares being transferred. To ensure that we promptly acknowledge your contribution upon its arrival, send notice to Panthera at donate@panthera.org.
