Gifts of Stock

Girl Scouts

If you itemize your tax returns, securities gifts may allow you to have a federal income tax charitable deduction.  Gifts of appreciated securities may provide additional tax benefits.  To see if this is the best option for you, please discuss your tax situation with an attorney or accountant.

Gifts of stock may be wire transferred to the Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana account at Charles Schwab.  Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana’s DTC Number is 0164.  The Account Number is 3466-1415.

When transferring by wire, please ask your broker to include your last name – or its first few letters – as an identifying "marker" on the transfer.  This will help us identify your gift and acknowledge it promptly. 

In addition, please complete the stock transfer information form and return it by mail, email or fax to Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana.
