Ask your broker to make an electronic transfer of the shares to Young Life's Merrill Lynch Colorado Springs account #428-0446 The Dic number is 8862 and it as needed if the stock is currently in an account with a company other than Merrill Lynch. Once the stock is transferred into Young Life's account, we will receive notification of the transfer, and a receipt will be sent to you.

Please sign the stock over to Young Life, either by endorsing the back of the certificate or by using a stock power. Please make sure to sign exactly how the names appear on the front of the certificate. If you have already had the certificate reissued in the name of Young Life, it is not necessary to provide us with a stock power. A medallion stamp needs to be applied to verify donor. Both types should then be mailed to the attention of the Stock Accountant at the Young Life Service Center, 420 North Cascade, Colorado Springs. CO 80905. Due to the nature of the document being mailed we recommend that you send it via certified/registered/express mail. When the certificate is received, it will be immediately be liquidated and a receipt will be sent to you. The effective date of a gift made in this manner is the date of the postmark for certificates still registered to the donor, and the certificate date for those that have been reissued in the name of Young Life.

Please contact the Stock Accountant to discuss how to initiate the transfer. Because each mutual fund company has its own unique procedure, we will need to contact your mutual fund company or your broker to coordinate the most effective way to make the transfer.
