Donate Stock

Donating stock to RAINN allowed me to not only support RAINN in the fight against sexual assault, but to receive valuable tax benefits as well.

Why Donate Stock?

Giving a gift of stock is one of the most advantageous ways to give to RAINN, as it offers many financial benefits as well as flexibility.

Flexible: You can donate stock, mutual funds, and bonds.
Lower Taxes: You can deduct the total current value of your donated securities.
No Capital Gain Taxes: Instead of selling stocks that have appreciated and donating the proceeds, donate the stock to RAINN and pay no Capital Gains Tax on the appreciation.

Instructions for Donating Stock, Bonds, or Mutual Funds

Important: Please complete both steps.

  1. Transfer Securities
    • If the shares are held in your brokerage account, instruct your broker to transfer them to:

      Etrade Clearing LLC
      PO Box 1542
      Merrifield, VA 22116-1542

    • Account Name: Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network
      Account#: 60801988
      DTC#: 0385,Code 40

      Make sure your broker includes your name and contact information in the text comment field of the DTC transfer screen.

    • If you possess the physical certificates instead of holding the shares in a brokerage account, email membership@rainn.org or call 202.544.3561 for transfer instructions.
  2. Notify RAINN of your stock gift. Your contact information may not transmit with the transferred securities, so it is important that you provide us with the following information.

If you have any questions, or if you prefer to provide this information by email, mail or fax, please contact:
