Stock Transfer Information

For gifts of stock, shares may be delivered two ways:
  1. Electronically to one of the GSU Foundation brokers.  Any stock gift delivered electronically must be received in the GSU Foundation account before the markets close on December 31 in order for a donor to receive credit for the stock gift in that calendar year. Also by completing the Donor Letter of Direction, DTC instructions, and the Stock Power documentation, the Foundation will be made aware of your gift intent and process your gift more efficiently when the stock is received.
  2. Stock gifts can be physically delivered to the GSU Foundation. Gifts must be postmarked, or be in the Foundation office, on or before December 31. Do not endorse the stock certificates. In a separate envelope, mail a signed stock power.
