Make a gift of stock
Donors transfer ownership of their securities to the University of North Texas Foundation, Inc. to create endowments or current project support at the University. By “transferring” publicly traded stock to the Foundation, donors bypass all capital gains, and receive a charitable deduction for the average of the high and low values of the security on the date of transfer.
How a Donor makes a Gift of Stock held in “Street Name” at their Brokerage - Donors instruct their broker to electronically transfer (“DTC”) whole or fractional shares to the Foundation’s account at A G Edwards, Denton, TX: DTC number 0201, “FBO UNT Foundation, Inc.” using account number 6243 0237.
- Donors receive confirmation of the transfer from their broker, and an official receipt from the University of North Texas for the value of the gift.
