Gifts of Stock or Other Appreciated Security

Thank you for your interest in the work of the C.S. Lewis Institute and for considering a gift of support. One means of support you may want to consider is a gift of appreciated stock.

In most cases, gifts of appreciated stock offer distinct advantages for the donor as well as the Institute. Depending on your tax situation, gifts of appreciated stock donated directly to C.S. Lewis Institute can potentially be deducted at the full fair market value of the stock, thereby avoiding the payment of capital gains tax. On receipt of the stock, the Institute will sell it and derive the benefit of the stock's full value for advancing the work of discipleship of heart and mind.

Please consult with your tax advisor about your particular situation.

  • Remembering Chuck Colson
    We at the C.S. Lewis Institute give thanks to God for the life of our dear friend and brother, Chuck Colson. He was a great example of wholehearted commitment to Christ and His kingdom for people around the world. And he was also great encourager of our work over the years, as a friend, advisor, and in other ways. Our prayers are with Patty and the family during this difficult time. And with them we carry on in the sure and certain hope of the resurrection. Until then, we continue, as Chuck did, to run with perseverance the race that is set before us, keeping our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith.Read More...

  • Ten Letters
    I've been spending more time in prayer lately, feeling convicted that I need to be listening more and being more open to what God is doing and wants to do in my life.  If you’re like me, you go through periods when busyness crowds out discernment, and activities crowd out time to listen.Read More...

Quote of the Week
"There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them."
