Securities - Gifts of appreciated stock may provide substantial tax advantages. You can avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation and qualify for a tax deduction based on the full market value of the securities on the date you make the gift.

Planned Giving – There are a number of ways to support the Academy through planned gifts. Consider including a bequest to the Academy in your will; naming the Academy as a beneficiary of your IRA or other retirement plan; donating a paid-up life insurance policy for current tax savings.
