Transferring Stock in Your Possession

When transferring stock in your possession, please note that you don't have to contribute the exact number of shares listed on the certificate(s). For example, if you have a certificate for 500 shares and wish only to contribute 100 of them, indicate so and we will have a new certificate for 400 shares returned to you.

Step 1 - Deliver the certificate(s) to us
Mail works just fine, but--for your protection--do not endorse the certificates. Instead, send under separate cover a "stock power" that is signed exactly as the name(s) which appear on the certificate; one stock power per certificate.

STEP 2 - Request blank stock powers from us
Contact Elizabeth Baughman, director of advancement services, for blank stock powers. She can be reached via email at Elizabeth_Baughman@hmc.edu, phone at (909) 607-3469 or fax at (909) 621-8360. Remember, sign each stock power exactly the way the name(s) appears on the certificate. Do not complete any other field on the stock power. We will do that.

STEP 3 - Funding trusts or other planned gifts
Should you wish to give stock to fund a trust or other planned gift, please contact Heath Elliott, senior director for college advancement, prior to initiating your transfer. He can be reached via email at Heath_Elliott@hmc.edu, phone at (909) 607-0902 or fax at (909) 621-8360.
