You can help inspire science learning for life through a variety of giving options that may offer significant tax benefits for you and your family. Whether you choose to donate appreciated stock, make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA, or work with your financial advisor on other assets, your support helps fuel OSC’s impactful exhibits, education programs, and community outreach.
Donating appreciated securities is a smart and simple way to support Orlando Science Center while potentially avoiding capital gains tax.
To make a stock transfer:
Provide your broker with the following information:
- Receiving Institution: PNC Bank
- DTC Number: 0226
- Account Name: Orlando Science Center, Inc.
- Account Number: 005-065532
Then, please notify us of your intent by completing the brief form below or contacting us directly.
If you are 70½ or older, you can donate up to $100,000 per year directly from your IRA to a qualified charity like Orlando Science Center—tax-free. These Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) can also count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD).
To make a QCD:
Contact your IRA administrator and request that a distribution be made directly to:
Orlando Science Center
777 East Princeton Street
Orlando, FL 32803
Federal Tax ID (EIN): 59-0782061

We also accept gifts through donor-advised funds (DAFs), mutual fund shares, and other non-cash assets. These methods can offer flexibility and additional tax advantages.
