QCDs & Gifts of Stock

Qualified Charitable Distributions and Gifts of Stock

Maximize your impact and your tax savings by choosing to give through appreciated stock or your IRA—it’s a win-win for you and our pets.

Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs)

If you are age 70½ or older, you can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA directly to Richmond SPCA. This is a smart way to support the animals you love while potentially lowering your taxable income.

Why consider a QCD?

  • QCDs count toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD).
  • The amount transferred is excluded from your taxable income.
  • You can make a meaningful gift even if you don’t itemize deductions.

how it works

  1. Contact your IRA custodian and request a Qualified Charitable Distribution directly to Richmond SPCA.
  2. Provide the custodian with our legal name, mailing address, and tax ID number (EIN) (listed below).
  3. Your IRA custodian will send the funds directly to us. Please ensure your name and contact information are included so we know who to thank!

Legal Name: Richmond Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
Mailing Address: 2519 Hermitage Road
Richmond, VA 23220
Federal Tax ID (EIN): 54-0506328

Your gift will benefit pets like Amara!

Gifts of Stock

Donating appreciated stock is a powerful and tax-smart way to support our mission. When you give shares that have increased in value, you can make a generous contribution while potentially saving on taxes.

Why consider a stock gift?

  • Avoid a capital gains tax if the value of your stock has appreciated.
  • Receive a charitable income tax deduction for the fair market value of the stock (if you itemize).
  • Increase your giving power — your gift can have a greater impact than if you sold the stock and donated the proceeds.

how it works

  1. Contact your financial advisor or brokerage firm to initiate a transfer of appreciated stocks.
  2. Provide your broker with our account information (listed below) and let us know about your intended gift.
  3. Once the stock is transferred, we will sell it and use the proceeds to support our programs and services.
