Contact the Human Resources department at your workplace to see if they participate in a matching gift program. If they do, let the HR department know and they will give you the necessary paperwork to complete.
The HR department at your workplace will provide the paperwork for matching gifts. Follow the procedure according to the policy at your workplace and send in the form to the University of Dallas Office of Advancement. Our mailing address is:

It is often to your advantage to contribute long-term appreciated securities directly to UD rather than selling them and donating the proceeds of the sale. Why? You can often claim the full market value of donated shares as a charitable deduction on your income tax and avoid paying capital gains tax on the increase in the value of your shares given to UD. If you have questions, you should consult with your financial advisory.
If a bank, trust, or brokerage house holds your stock certificates:
You, your trust officer, or your broker should contact the University of Dallas at
972-721-4105 or advancement@udallas.edu. Let us know what is being given, and we will
provide instructions on how to complete the transfer of shares.
If you hold the stock certificates yourself:
Mail the unsigned stock certificates and a completed stock power form in separate
envelopes—and mailed at the same time—to:
We recommend that you use certified mail when sending both your certificates and executed stock power form. In one of the envelopes, please include a note indicating the designation of your gift.
If the stock is registered in more than one name, each person must sign the stock power form. Sign only your name(s) on the stock power form. UD will complete all the other information, including the guarantee of signature(s) when the stock certificate is being sent for transfer.
If you are giving more than one type of stock, please send a stock power form for each stock.
