What Our Donors Are Saying:

Mission-driven, non-profit, and community-supported, Lion’s Roar provides Buddhist teachings, news, and perspectives so that the understanding and practice of Buddhism flourishes in today’s world and its timeless wisdom is accessible to all. We do this by providing as many entry points as we can: through our print and digital publications, our website, online summits, podcasts, social media, online courses and more. We try to bring dharma to people right where they are, knowing what a difference it can make in their lives.

You can make an investment in sharing the dharma and reduce your taxes by donating securities (shares, mutual funds, etc) directly to the Lion’s Roar Foundation.

The benefits of a gift of appreciated assets, such as shares or securities, are three-fold.

1.  Receive a larger tax deduction for the asset’s full market value at the time of donating.
2.  Avoid paying a capital gains tax you would otherwise incur from the sale.
3.  Ensure that more of your gift reaches Lion’s Roar.

The tables below illustrate an example of the advantages of directly donating shares or securities to Lion’s Roar Foundation instead of selling them and donating the proceeds. This calculation assumes a tax rate of 50%. Please consult with your tax advisor to understand your specific situation.

TO OFFER A GIFT OF SECURITIES

• Please email Bakes Mitchell (bakes.mitchell@lionsroar.com) or call him at 902-431-8132 to let us know you intend to donate securities.
