Donate Stock
Donating stock is also one of the most tax-efficient ways for individuals to support causes that matter to them. We are excited to offer this giving opportunity to supporters of our organisation.
Donate stock to change kids lives
Making a stock donation to support Variety - the Children's Charity will directly impact the lives of kids experiencing disability, disadvantage or illness through the provision of tangible equipment and programs.
Support kids in need by making a charitable gift in stock. We accept donations in publicly traded, domestic common stocks.
How do I donate stock to Variety - the Children's Charity?
Donating stock is safe and easy. Using the donation form on this page, making a charitable gift of stock is a quick, five-step process:

Meet Alex
Alex is a bright and bubbly four-year-old, with a gorgeous smile that lights up the room!
This year, we funded an x-panda chair for Alex, valued at $12,345. The chair provides postural support and sensory input, whilst enabling Alex to remain safely seated at all times. This means he can eat without risk of choking, participate in activities with his peers at their level and build his social and communication skills.
“Having the x-panda means we can sit at the dinner table together as a family, something we haven’t been able to do. It also means Alex can participate in bench top activities, like baking, and eating the cake batter! One of my favourite past times.” Alex’s mum said.
We value transparency
At Variety - the Children's Charity, transparency to our donors and supporters is a top priority.
