Donate Stocks, Mutual Funds or IRA Distribution

St. Nersess welcomes gifts of securities, including publicly traded and privately held stock and mutual funds. Donations can be made through your broker or investment manager to transfer stocks to us electronically. Gifts of appreciated securities offer a tax savings. The donor is entitled to take a charitable deduction for the full current value of appreciated securities (held longer than one year) and is also able to avoid paying any capital gains tax that would be due if the donor sold the securities or took a distribution.

Planned Giving Society

Established 2015

For Dr. Lucy Balian Rorke-Adams, making a planned gift to St. Nersess Armenian Seminary is more than just a financial investment; it is an opportunity to thank the Lord for all her life blessings and ensure St. Nersess Armenian Seminary will continue to train men for service in the Armenian Church for years to come.
