Donate Stock & Securities or from a Donor-Advised Fund

Giving stocks — including publicly traded stock, bonds, or mutual funds — or through a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) can be a tax-smart option to make your gift to Louisville Public Media and show your commitment to the news and music you rely on. You get all the benefits of membership, too.

Please notify us when you make a gift of stock or through your DAF so we can process your donation properly. Contact Kelly Wilkinson (membership@lpm.org or 502-814-6565). Thank you!

Giving Stock Gifts

Appreciated securities, particularly those held longer than one year, may reduce or avoid capital gains obligations and allow you to take a full tax deduction for the fair market value of the stock at time of transfer.

Once the transfer is complete, we usually sell the stock and use the proceeds to fund your favorite public radio programs. We encourage you to talk to your tax or financial advisor to better understand the implications of such a gift on your individual tax situation.

How to Make a Stock Gift

  • The preferred method of donating stock is via electronic transfer through your bank or broker.
  • This method is easiest for you and ensures the proceeds will benefit Louisville Public Media almost immediately.  Your broker will require written instructions from you in order to initiate the transfer.
  • Here is our account information that you will need to make the transfer:
    • Receiving Institution: Charles Schwab & Co.
    • DTC #0164, Code 40
    • Account #3645-3882
    • Kentucky Public Radio Inc (Tax ID #61-1259787)

Donate Through Your Donor-Advised Fund

By recommending a grant from your DAF, you help us continue to produce the news and music you rely on, ensuring that everyone in our community has access to independent public media.
