Gifts of Stock and Mutual Funds Procedures

The preferred way to give shares of stock or mutual funds to GFA is to transfer the shares to our Wachovia Securities account.

  1. If your shares of stock are in a Wachovia Securities account, a direct transfer can be made to:
    Account name: Gospel for Asia, Inc.
    Account number: 3764-8370

  2. If your shares of stock are with another brokerage firm, a DTC transfer can be made through:
    National Investors Services Corp
    Deliver to DTC Clearing # 0141
    for Gospel for Asia
    Wachovia Securities account #3764-8370

  3. If you have the stock certificate in hand, you should:
    A. Endorse the back of the certificate appointing Wachovia Securities as attorney to transfer the certificate. Leave BLANK the line regarding to whom the certificate is being transferred.
    B. Sign the back of the certificate exactly as the name(s) appear on the front.
    C. Write a letter indicating that you wish to donate ___ (number of shares) of _________ (name of stock) to Gospel for Asia's Wachovia Securities account #3764-8370.
    D. Mail the certificate and letter to the following address:
    Jackie Speth
    Wachovia Securities
    815 North Water Street
    Milwaukee, WI 53202

  4. If your mutual fund shares cannot be transferred to Wachovia Securities, Gospel for Asia has accounts with several mutual fund investment agencies. If we don't have an account with the agency that handles your mutual fund, we will open one. Then a transfer can easily be made from your account to our account, and we will redeem the shares for use according to your designation. Please contact Kris Davis for information about specific funds. Kris can be reached at 1-800-946-2742. Please leave voice mail if she is not in at the time of your call. If you would rather email Kris directly, please fill out the form at the bottom of this page.

  5. Very Important: We sometimes receive notification that gifts of stock or mutual funds have come into our account, but are unable to determine whom the donor is, or how he or she would like the proceeds spent. To avoid this problem, on the day of the transfer, please contact Kris Davis at Gospel for Asia to inform her of the name of the stock, number of shares, date of the transfer, and your designation for how the proceeds from the sale of the stock should be used (native missionary support, where most needed, Bibles, radio broadcasts, training, etc.) Kris can be reached at 1-800-946-2742. Please leave voice mail if she is not in at the time of your call. If you would rather email Kris directly, please fill out the form at the bottom of this page.

  6. After we receive the gift of stock or mutual funds, Gospel for Asia will immediately liquidate the shares and send you a Gift-in-Kind receipt. This receipt lists the name of the stock or mutual fund, the number of shares, the date they were given, and that no goods or services were received in exchange for the gift. Since the value of stocks and mutual funds fluctuate so quickly, the fair market value of your gift can be determined from your statement from your broker - the value of the stock or mutual fund at the time the transfer was made from your account.

Kris Davis is Gospel for Asia's planned giving coordinator.
