If you have shares which are uneconomical to sell, you can help Seashell by donating your small shareholdings via ShareGift – the share donation charity.
ShareGift specialises in accepting small shareholdings that would cost more to sell than they are worth, generating substantial funding for charities like Seashell. ShareGift also accepts larger donations for shares too.
Who are ShareGift?
ShareGift is an independent UK registered charity (No. 1052686) which specialises in releasing the money locked up in small shareholdings, but accept donations of any size. ShareGift works by collecting together small lots of shares until there are enough to sell and then donating the resulting proceeds to a wide range of charities. If you are a UK taxpayer, you can claim income tax relief on the value of most stocks and securities when you donate them to a charity. In addition, donating shares charitably gives rise to neither a gain nor a loss for Capital Gains Tax (CGT) purposes.
To date ShareGift has donated nearly £50million to more than 3,600 charities. ShareGift make their grants based upon a variety of factors including the suggestions of their donors. You can help support Seashell’s work by donating any size of shareholdings you may have to ShareGift, and mentioning Seashell when you do so.
