CHECKS

Checks and cashed can be mailed to the address below:

DONOR
ADVISED
FUNDS
If you prefer to make a contribution through a donor advised fund, we recommend the following resources. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions about charitable giving or donor advised funds.
STOCKS
& BONDS
Giving a gift of publicly traded stock that has increased in value and that you have owned for more than one year may provide better tax benefits than giving cash. Your charitable income tax deduction is equal to the fair market value of the stock, and you avoid paying the capital gains tax on any increase in the current value over the original cost of the stock. You may also save on brokerage fees because you are transferring ownership rather than selling the stock.
Stock held in a brokerage account may be transferred electronically to Streetlights by contacting your broker using the following account information:
Brokerage Firm: Charles Schwab
Brokerage Number (DTC): 0164
Account Name: Streetlights
Account Number: Contact us
Federal Tax ID Number (TIN/EIN): 83-2958166
