Please contact Julie Berks at [email protected] and download the Gifts of Publicly Traded Securities forms here.

Real Estate

Gifts of real property may also provide donors with significant tax advantages. The full fair market value or the net proceeds from the sale of real estate is fully deductible, depending on the timing of the gift and the donor’s income.

Wills and Bequests

When considering your will and your lasting legacy, please remember that the Foundation can make a significant gift last for eternity. The Foundation may be named as the residual beneficiary of a donor’s estate, the recipient of a specific dollar amount or contingent bequest, or the ultimate recipient of the assets of a charitable remainder trust.

Life Insurance

You can name the Foundation as the beneficiary of your life insurance policy, without reducing what your estate will give to family and friends. There can also be significant tax advantages each year. Contact us for more information.

RRSP/RRIF/TFSA

You can name the Foundation as the beneficiary of your Registered Retirement Savings Plan, Registered Retirement Income Fund or Tax Free Savings Account, while saving your Estate from paying probate tax on the proceeds.
