What is the Online Stock Donation Process?

Step 1: Donor completes online stock donation form

Donor completes a stock donation form on your website or at The Giving Block, with stock to donate, contact information, and brokerage details.

Step 2: Donor and brokerage receive secure transfer instructions

After submitting the form, The Giving Block provides the transfer instructions needed to move your shares. Depending on your brokerage firm, these instructions may be:

Sent directly to the donor
Sent directly to the broker
Shared through both channels

Step 3: Shares are transferred

Once instructions are received, the brokerage firm transfers the shares to The Giving Block’s charitable partner. Most transfers are completed within 3 to 5 business days, although timelines may vary depending on the brokerage and asset type.

Step 4: Shares are received and liquidated

After the shares arrive, they are sold and converted into usable funds. This allows nonprofits to immediately put donations to work supporting their programs rather than managing securities directly.

Step 5: Donation receipt is sent to donor

Once the donation is completed:

The donor receives a donation receipt
The nonprofit sees the contribution reflected in its dashboard
This provides transparency throughout the process.

Step 6: Funds reach the nonprofit

The final step is distribution. Funds are delivered to the nonprofit through an ACH transfer, allowing organizations to quickly access the resources they need to advance their mission.

Stock Donation FAQs

Everything Donors and Nonprofits Need to Know

1. How can my nonprofit start accepting stock donations?

Getting started is simple. The Giving Block provides nonprofits with a secure stock donation solution that eliminates the need to open and manage their own brokerage account. After onboarding, organizations receive a branded donation page where donors can initiate stock gifts online.

2. Why should nonprofits accept stock donations?

Accepting stock donations allows nonprofits to unlock a new source of major gifts. Many donors hold appreciated securities and can often make larger, more tax-efficient gifts by donating stock instead of cash.

3. Do nonprofits need a brokerage account to accept stock donations?

No. The Giving Block handles the stock transfer process on behalf of nonprofits, simplifying administration while helping organizations securely receive and liquidate donated securities.

4. Is accepting stock donations secure?

Yes. The Giving Block uses secure transfer processes and compliance-focused workflows to facilitate stock donations from donors to nonprofits. The platform is designed to reduce administrative burden while providing a seamless experience for both parties.

5. What types of securities can be donated?

Most publicly traded stocks, ETFs, and other marketable securities can be donated through The Giving Block. If a donor is unsure whether a specific security is eligible, our team can help determine the best path forward.

6. How long does a stock donation take?

Most stock donations are completed within 3–5 business days, although timing may vary depending on the donor’s brokerage firm and the type of security being transferred.

7. Can donors give stock directly from their brokerage account?

Yes. Donors can initiate a transfer directly from most major brokerage accounts without first selling their securities. If their broker isn’t listed, they can complete the donation using a Letter of Instruction.

8. How do nonprofits receive the funds?

Once donated securities are received and processed, they are typically liquidated, and the proceeds are distributed to the nonprofit according to the organization’s payout schedule, reducing market exposure and administrative complexity.

9. Will donors receive a tax receipt?

Yes. Donors receive a donation receipt after their stock gift has been completed. Individual tax benefits vary, so donors should consult a qualified tax advisor regarding their specific circumstances.

10. Why choose The Giving Block to accept stock donations?

The Giving Block provides nonprofits with an end-to-end stock donation platform that includes a branded donation experience, secure transfer workflows, donor support, compliance assistance, and reporting tools—making it easy for organizations of all sizes to accept non-cash gifts without operational complexity.
