If you, as a donor, make a donation it is up to you to let the DGR know its market value, excluding money.
Cash
For cash donations the value is the dollar amount.
Property
Property has a wide meaning, it is more than just physical things (such as land and objects). It includes rights and interests that can be owned and have a value (such as shares and ownership rights).
The method used to value property depends on various factors, including how the property was acquired, the type of the property, and how much the property is worth.
