How does someone donate shares of stock to a Foundation or the Alumni Association?

The easiest method for donating stock is via electronic transfer. Most Foundations, as well as the Alumni Association, have their own Charles Schwab brokerage account. Any donations of stock to the Tobacco Foundation should be transferred to the Agricultural Foundation’s brokerage account. Please contact the Office of Gift Planning for specific instructions and account numbers.

If the donor holds securities in certificate form, he/she will need to mail two envelopes separately to complete the gift:

  • In the first envelope, place the unsigned stock certificate(s).
  • In the second envelope, include a signed stock power for each certificate; you may obtain this power from your broker or bank.

Please remember to use certified mail. Envelopes should be addressed to:
