Why Equity?
It’s simpler than it sounds and more valuable than you think.
Until now, nonprofits waited until after a business sale to receive donations. With Donate Equity, gifts can happen years earlier, with less effort and more upside.
Equity can be converted to cash.
It’s not just stock on paper—it can become real funding when the time is right.

This unlocked a donation we didn’t think was possible yet.
We thought equity giving was something that would happen down the road—after a big exit or a bunch of planning. Donate Equity made it clear, fast, and doable. And now we’ve secured a gift we didn’t think was possible at this stage.
