Give stock directly to Relational Peace (preferred).
Gifting publicly traded stock, mutual funds, or ETFs you’ve held more than one year can be a tax-smart way to give—often avoiding capital gains tax and, if you itemize, allowing a charitable deduction within IRS limits. More of your gift goes to the mission.

How it works (simple + secure)

  1. Request transfer instructions — we’ll send our DTC and account details securely.

  2. Ask your broker/custodian to transfer shares directly to Sweeten Life Systems (our legal name)—no selling first.

  3. Give us a heads-up so we can watch for your gift and thank you promptly.

What we can receive

  • Publicly traded stocks, mutual funds, ETFs.

  • Need to explore something more complex (restricted shares, private business interests, real estate)? We can introduce you to the team at the National Christian Foundation (NCF) for specialized handling—totally optional.

Helpful notes

  • For potential tax benefits, assets are typically held > 1 year before gifting.

  • The gift date is usually when shares arrive in our account.

  • We’ll issue a receipt describing the asset; you and your advisor determine value for tax purposes.
