Your Legacy: Investing in a Home for Every Child
As we work toward a world where every child in Egypt has a loving family, we invite you to consider a gift that provides support not just for today, but for generations to come.
The Power of Giving Stock
Instead of a traditional cash donation, you can contribute appreciated stock directly to our Endowment Fund held at the Community Foundation. This is one of the most tax-efficient ways to support our mission.
Why give stock through our Community Foundation fund?
- Maximize Your Impact: By donating stock held for more than a year, you avoid capital gains tax. This allows you to give up to 20% more to our cause than if you sold the stock and donated the cash.
- Double Tax Benefit: You can typically deduct the full fair market value of the stock on your taxes, regardless of what you originally paid for it.
- Sustainable Hope: Your gift is invested in our Endowment. While the principal remains intact, the annual earnings provide a steady, reliable stream of income that powers our nationwide training and family-home initiatives year after year.
"A gift of stock today becomes a lifetime of hope for a child tomorrow."

How We Handle Zakat-Designated Stock
- Immediate Liquidation: All stock gifts designated as Zakat are liquidated immediately upon receipt.
- Direct Impact: Unlike our general endowment, Zakat funds are not held for long-term investment. 100% of the liquidated proceeds are applied directly to Zakat-compliant programs (such as the Small Family Home model).
- Timely Distribution: We ensure that these funds are deployed within the same calendar year the contribution was made, honoring the spiritual and timing requirements of your obligation.
