Gift of Securities
For donors who currently have stocks and bonds, giving a gift of securities is an impactful way to make a difference in the lives of pancreatic cancer patients and their families.
In May 2006, the Federal government eliminated the capital gains tax on gifts of securities to registered charitable organizations. By donating securities directly to Pancreatic Cancer Canada, you avoid capital gains tax and are eligible for a tax receipt for the fair market value of your gift.
There are three steps to make a gift of securities to Pancreatic Cancer Canada:
- Speak to your financial advisor to determine which investments will make the most philanthropic and financial impact to you.
- Complete the transfer form and instruct your broker to transfer your securities directly to Pancreatic Cancer Canada. Send a copy of the signed form to us, allowing us to track your generous gift and to inform our bank.
- Upon receipt of the transferred securities to Pancreatic Cancer Canada’s brokerage account, we will issue a charitable receipt based on the closing market value of the shares on the day they are received in our account.
