Ways to Give

Your donation helps BGOLDN reduce hunger among Golden area families.
Funds are used to fuel programs for students and families and to provide healthy food for our Fresh Food Pantry.

Stock Donation
Did you know when you donate stock, you avoid the tax on the gain while deducting 100 percent of the value of the contribution? When you give stock, you may earn 2-3x the tax savings vs. donating cash. It’s a win-win for you and us. And now it’s fast, safe, and easy to do.
BGOLDN has partnered with DonateStock.com to enable our supporters to make stock donations in 10 minutes or less. Our DonateStock page enables you to donate stock from your brokerage directly to our account through a secure portal, making the gifting process fast, safe, and easy.
