Donate Securities

Why Give Securities

Donating publicly traded securities — such as stocks, bonds, or mutual fund units — is one of the most tax-effective ways to give. By transferring appreciated assets directly to Biome, you can:

• Eliminate capital gains tax on the appreciated value of your securities.
• Receive a charitable tax receipt for the full fair market value.
• Increase your impact without affecting your cash flow.

Your gift of securities helps protect biodiversity, advance locally-led stewardship, and build climate resilience — ensuring nature thrives for future generations.
