Stocks & Securities

When you donate stock to LBO, you’ll be able to take a tax deduction for the full fair market value. Because you are donating stock, your contribution and tax deduction may instantly increase over 20%. The same benefits apply if you prefer to donate bonds or mutual funds. Best of all, this option will help you lower your tax exposure and allow you to consider a larger gift than you might be able to make if you sell the shares and donate the net proceeds.

Instructions on how to donate stock can be found here. A sample letter to your broker can be found here.

For all stock and securities inquiries, please call Nico, Head of Development & Philanthropy at (562) 470-7464 x106.

Commemorative Gifts

Memorial Gifts
Remember someone who loved opera and LBO by making a contribution in their memory.

Honorary Gifts
Make a contribution to LBO in consideration of a family member or friend, for their birthday or anniversary, or as a holiday gift. When making your commemorative gift please indicate who LBO should acknowledge and the type of commemorative gift.

Cryptocurrency

Donating cryptocurrency is a great way to support LBO! By donating cryptocurrency directly rather than selling it for cash and then donating the cash gift, you avoid paying capital gains tax on your crypto gains, and you receive a federal income tax deduction for the full value of the cryptocurrency at the time of donation. (State & local income tax deductions may also be available).

To donate cryptocurrency to LBO, please use this cryptocurrency donation portal. Follow the step-by-step instructions to process the donation and a tax receipt will be provided upon completion of the transaction.

For all cryptocurrency inquiries, please call Nico, Head of Development & Philanthropy at (562) 470-7464 x106.
