Stock is very often received by our broker without the donor's identity. Please instruct your stockbroker or agent to notify Nicole Kennedy (423-778-3340) at Erlanger Foundation of the date of the transfer and all details of the gift of securities to insure that your instructions are carried out in a timely manner. Failure to provide this additional information may cause a delay in recognizing you as a donor.
