Topic Summary: Donating shares is a means of obtaining donation tax credits for an individual without donating cash. Also, the cash cost of the donation comes from the corporation whose shares are redeemed rather than the donor. The problem is valuing the donated shares. This problem is significantly avoided by donating preferred shares.
