Publicly traded stock
(on deposit in your brokerage account)

  • If your shares are held with Computershare, please contact Computershare and request your shares in certificate form. They will send you a certificate, and then follow the instructions below for publicly traded stock certificates.


Publicly traded stock certificate(s)

  • Download a Stock Power form and complete it. 
  • Download a Certificate Release Request.  List the name of the stock and the number of shares that the certificate represents.  Print and sign your name exactly as your name appears on the front of the certificate. The Certificate Release Request must have a medallion signature guarantee, which can be obtained at your bank.
  • Deliver the certificate and original Stock Power and Certificate Release Request to NCF.  We suggest overnight service or USPS return receipt requested.
  • If you wish to have the certificate registered prior to gifting, please have the transfer agent register it in the name of "National Christian Charitable Foundation, Inc."
