Using shares of appreciated stock or other securities is another common way to contribute to the AIP Foundation that may offer benefits to the donor as well as the beneficiary. The Foundation accepts gifts of securities via electronic transfer and physical stock certificates.
Before initiating a stock transfer, contact Mariann Salisbury at the AIP Foundation (msalisbury@aip.org or 301-209-3098) to inform the Foundation of the forthcoming transfer including how you wish to designate your gift.
