SHARES & SECURITIES
Donating stock to charity
Turn your wish to give into support for healthcare in Thailand. Explore a shares or securities gift with Doc Martyns Remote Clinics.
Your investments could support care for people who face barriers to medical services. Start by discussing your proposed gift with the team, so you can confirm whether it can be accepted and how to proceed.
Why healthcare access matters
Reaching a clinic is not always straightforward. Distance, transport difficulties and limited resources can make it harder for people in rural and underserved communities to get timely care.
Doc Martyns Remote Clinics brings healthcare into communities in Thailand. Its work includes consultations, health screenings, treatment and medication. Supporting this work means keeping people and their everyday health needs at the centre of your giving.
Why consider donating securities to charity?
For some donors, investments form an important part of their charitable giving. A thoughtful plan can connect those assets with a cause they care about.
Give from your investments
If you hold shares or other securities, you may want to explore a gift from your portfolio rather than from your everyday spending money. The first step is to check whether the foundation can receive your particular holding.
Connect your gift to care
A proposed investment gift starts with the same purpose as any donation: supporting people. Talk with the team about current healthcare needs and how an accepted gift could contribute.
Plan with confidence
Investments that have risen in value may raise financial and tax questions. Compare your options with a qualified adviser rather than assuming a transfer is always better than selling first.
The healthcare work behind your gift
Healthcare is more than a single clinic visit. From consultations to community outreach, these are some of the areas your support could help sustain. Ask the team about current priorities when discussing your proposed gift.
Medical consultations
Bringing medical advice and care closer to people in rural and underserved communities.
Treatment and medicines
Supporting the care and medication that patients need alongside a medical consultation.
Health screenings
Helping people identify health concerns and discuss suitable next steps with a medical team.
Community outreach
Reaching people where they live and supporting access to preventative care and health information.
What is a securities donation?
A securities donation generally means giving ownership of an investment to a charity, instead of selling it and donating the cash. Shares are one type of security. Other investments can include bonds, mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
These are examples of investment types, not a list of assets accepted by Doc Martyn. Before you make any arrangements, ask the team to confirm whether your proposed gift is suitable.
Who might consider this kind of gift?
You may be an individual investor, a retiree, a business owner or someone exploring a gift on behalf of a trust or company. Your circumstances will shape the questions you need to ask.
For an organisation or trust, check who can authorise the gift. For any donor, the investment, the market where it is held and the applicable rules may affect what is possible.
Talk with us before arranging a transfer
Book a meeting to discuss your proposed shares or securities gift. Please confirm the available route and requirements before transferring any assets.
How to start a conversation
Donating stock to charity should begin with clear information, not an unexpected transfer. These checks help you explore the options without committing before the details are agreed.
Describe your proposed gift
Tell the team which investment you are considering and the country or market where it is held. Keep the first enquiry simple: do not send passwords, login details or account documents.
Confirm eligibility and instructions
Ask whether the foundation can accept your particular holding. If the team confirms a suitable route, request the official requirements before giving any instructions to your broker or financial institution.
Review the plan with your adviser
Discuss the proposal with your broker and a qualified financial or tax adviser. Make sure you understand the process and implications before you authorise a transfer.

Donating Securities to Charity: Transform Investments into Lifesaving Healthcare
Donate Appreciated Securities and Help Deliver Healthcare to Thailand’s Most Vulnerable Communities
When you consider donating securities to charity, you have an opportunity to make a meaningful difference while supporting vital healthcare services for people who would otherwise go without medical treatment.
At Doc Martyns Remote Clinics, we bring healthcare directly to the poor, sick, elderly, disabled, and forgotten communities throughout Thailand. Through mobile medical outreach programs, health education, screenings, treatment, and medication support, we provide essential services where healthcare access is often limited or unavailable.
Your donation of stocks, shares, mutual funds, bonds, and other securities can help us expand our reach and provide lifesaving care to those who need it most.
Why Healthcare Access Matters
Despite significant progress in healthcare worldwide, millions of people still face barriers to receiving basic medical services. Rural populations, elderly individuals, low-income families, migrant workers, and isolated communities often struggle to access timely medical care.
Health challenges faced by underserved communities include:
- Untreated chronic diseases
- Limited access to medications
- Poor maternal and child healthcare
- Lack of preventative screenings
- Delayed diagnosis of serious illnesses
- Mobility and transportation barriers
Doc Martyns Remote Clinics works to bridge these gaps by delivering healthcare directly to communities that are frequently overlooked.
Why Consider Donating Securities to Charity?
The financial rationale below does not establish a verified tax or valuation benefit. A direct transfer does not guarantee that full market value reaches the charity; fees, valuation and the available transfer route require confirmation. Consult a qualified adviser.
Many investors hold appreciated stocks or securities that have increased significantly in value over time.
By donating securities to charity instead of selling them first, you may be able to:
Maximize Your Impact
A direct transfer of appreciated securities allows the full market value of the asset to support charitable work, helping us fund more medical outreach programs and patient care initiatives.
Support Long-Term Healthcare Solutions
Your donation helps provide:
- Mobile clinic operations
- Medical equipment and supplies
- Essential medications
- Health screenings
- Community health education
- Preventative healthcare programs
- Emergency medical assistance
Create Lasting Change
Every donated security can help fund healthcare services that improve lives, prevent illness, and support healthier communities throughout Thailand.

Our outreach teams travel to remote villages and underserved areas, delivering healthcare directly to those unable to access traditional medical facilities.
Medical Equipment
Donations help purchase essential diagnostic tools, treatment equipment, and healthcare resources needed to serve patients effectively.

Preventative Healthcare
Early detection and prevention save lives. We provide health checks, screenings, and education programs that help communities manage health risks before they become serious conditions.

Frequently asked questions
Start by describing the investment you have in mind. Stocks, bonds and funds are examples of securities, but not a confirmed acceptance list. The team needs to confirm whether it can receive your specific holding before you arrange a transfer.
That depends on your circumstances and the routes available. Donating an investment directly and selling it first can have different consequences. A qualified adviser can help you compare them; neither option is automatically better for every donor.
Tax treatment depends on your circumstances and the applicable rules. We cannot promise a deduction or a particular tax outcome. Ask a qualified tax adviser for guidance before you act.
