When you give a memorial or tribute gift for Brady to honor someone special, you’re expressing your love, admiration, and gratitude in one of the most meaningful ways there is. Your gift will honor your loved one, create a lasting tribute, and bring life-saving change to America.

You can use stocks, bonds, and mutual funds that have appreciated in value to support our shared vision. You may receive a charitable income tax deduction for the full market value of the stock (up to a maximum of 30% of your adjusted gross income) and avoid paying the capital gains tax on any increase in the value of the stock.

Would you like to maximize the impact of your giving and encourage other supporters to mobilize on behalf of our mission to end gun violence? Consider sponsoring a matching gift challenge. Donate a pool of funds to Brady, from which we will match any donation made within a given period of time. In this way, you can double the impact of your giving.
