Stock and Wire Transfers

To initiate a stock transfer, download the instructions below. For wire transfer or specialty instructions, or to confirm account information, email Michele Kilker or call (480) 967-7823.

Please note that standard methods of giving stock do not apply in the case of: physical stock certificates, direct registration shares, closely-held stock, stocks held on a foreign exchange, or mutual funds.

Gifts of appreciated securities typically carry benefits not associated with gifts made by check, cash, or credit card.

If you would like to notify the Newman Center of your intent to initiate a stock transfer, provide special instructions, or if you have any questions, please contact the Development Office at (480) 963-7827 or via email at development@asucatholic.org.

Donor Advised Funds

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable account sponsored by a public charity that donors use to support their philanthropy. DAF donors make irrevocable, tax deductible contributions of cash, securities or other assets to the public charity sponsoring the DAF in the donor(s)’ name.

If you have questions about how your gift may be designated, please contact the Office of Development at (480) 967-7823.

IRA Qualified Charitable Distribution

The IRA Qualified Charitable Distribution (IRA QCD) allows individuals who are 70-1⁄2 years or older to direct distributions from their IRA account to qualified domestic charities each tax year up to an annual limit. The SECURE Act 2.0 provided that the QCD limit be adjusted annually for inflation. For calendar year 2025, the QCD limit is $108,000. For calendar year 2026, the QCD limit is increased to $115,000.

IRA QCD donors can avoid taking their Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), or lessen the income they must recognize from their RMD, by directing QCD gifts from their IRA plans to ASU Newman. Because QCD gifts go directly from the IRA to the donor’s designated charity, the donor does not recognize the QCD amount as income to them from their tax-deferred IRA and they are not eligible to take a charitable tax deduction for the gift. Speak to your financial or tax advisor about making an IRA QCD.
