Gift of Securities

Thank you for your interest in making a gift of securities to the UVA Medical School Foundation. Please review the following instructions to ensure proper handling of your gift:

1. Notify our office and your broker of your intended gift by completing the Notice of Intent section of the Security Gift Form. This ensures that your gift is properly identified, designated and processed accurately and on a timely basis. You can also complete the form online.

2. Determine the method of gift transfer.

• Electronic transfer – the preferred and most efficient method (information for your broker is provided on the Security Gift Form).
• Mail – stock certificates held by the donor or broker require special processing (instructions are included on the Security Gift Form).
• Mutual funds – refer to special instructions on the Security Gift Form.
