Credit Card

Use your credit card to make a gift online or call 610-794-5132 to make a credit card gift by phone.

Gifts of Stock

Stocks may be transferred to Phoebe and provide tax benefits to the donor. Generally speaking, an appreciated security should be transferred directly to Phoebe to avoid having to pay capital gains tax.   Typically a depreciated stock should not be transferred directly to Phoebe.  It is usually beneficial to consider selling the depreciated stock and deducting the loss—then make a gift of cash from the proceeds of the sale.

To make a gift of securities, please call or email Charles L. Fehr, CFRE at 610-794-5132 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

We coordinate the transfer with your financial advisor or broker.
