Pooled Income Fund
(Gift example*)
At 65, you are an active volunteer in your community, still play tennis and golf, and invest for long-term growth. The bulk of your portfolio is Westinghouse stock that you acquired during your years with the company, and, although you are concerned that you are too concentrated in this one holding, you are reluctant to pay the capital gains cost of selling and reinvesting.
You want to support Tufts with a gift of $50,000.
To retain an income stream you contribute $50,000 of Westinghouse stock to our Pooled Income Fund.
Here is a summary of your income and tax benefits:
