Gift of Securities

Electronic Stock Transfer

Converse can help you make a gift of securities. For electronic stock transfers, you should instruct your broker to transfer the shares directly to Converse College's account:

State Street Bank & Trust Company
Phone: 816.871.7207
Fax: 617.769.6704
DTC Number: 0997
Converse College account number: CVG5

Your broker's instructions should include:
• your name as the donor
• the name of the stock and the number of shares
• the purpose of the gift (e.g., Converse Annual Fund)

Prior to making delivery, please have your broker confirm the above instructions with the Office of Institutional Advancement at 864.596.9018 and Jessica Baker at Street Bank & Trust 816.871.7207. Advance notice of incoming securities will ensure that all items can be promptly accepted by the bank and properly credited to the donor.

You may have your broker contact Dianne Ansley to arrange for your broker to liquidate the security as an agent for Converse College. The broker can then forward a check for the proceeds to Converse. Dianne can be reached by telephone at 864.577.2088.

Physical Stock Gift

If you have the stock certificate in your possession and it is listed in your name, you may mail the unendorsed certificate and a separate signed stock power to the address below. Please note that you should mail the certificate and the stock power in separate envelopes for security purposes. We recommend mailing stock certificates via registered mail, as an additional precaution.
