Stock Donations

Stocks can be donated either electronically or via certified mail. We encourage electronic delivery of stock shares because it is more secure, expedient, and cost efficient than delivery by certified mail.

Whether donating electronically or by mail, the donor must provide the following information for audit and acknowledgement purposes:

  • Donor’s name and complete address;
  • Name and number of securities transferred;
  • Specific Generations Incorporated program to which the gift should be directed, if any.

Please email this information to Tara Finnegan, our Director of Resource Development, at the time of transfer.
