Why Give Securities
When you donate securities you eliminate the capital gains tax that you’d have to pay if you sold the securities and then donated the proceeds. You will also receive a tax receipt for the full donation. This means your donation costs you less but does so much more!

Giving Gifts of Securities Resources
RESTRICTED GIVING POLICY
Spending of funds is confined to programs and projects approved by the organization. Should a donor choose to restrict a contribution for use in a particular program or project, we will honour that restriction, with the understanding that, when the need for such a program or project has been met, or cannot be completed for any reason as determined by the organization, the remaining restricted contributions will be used where most needed. Gifts are acknowledged and receipted with an official receipt for income tax purposes.
