Make a Gift of Shares

St. Mary’s University welcomes gifts of publicly listed securities such as mutual funds, shares, and stocks with the assistance of a professional broker. You can make a gift of shares to St. Mary’s by transferring them electronically and we strongly recommend you consult your financial advisor, securities broker or another financial representative to assist you in making the transfer. For more information or to initiate a gift, please contact Thérèse Takacs  or call 587.577.8550

Please note: Transferring shares between brokerage firms often take 3 to 4 business days and price fluctuations can occur. It is St. Mary’s University’s policy to sell donated securities as soon as possible. Your gift will be valued at the closing price on the day the security is received in our account and you will be issued a charitable tax receipt for that value. 

To ensure a charitable receipt for the current year is issued, please initiate your gift before December 15.
