Donate Securities

Hospice Care Ottawa / Ways to Donate / Donate Securities

Thank you for considering making your donation via a transfer of publicly traded securities to Hospice Care Ottawa. Through our broker, we can accept different types of securities, including publicly listed shares, bonds or mutual fund units.
 
Canada has some of the best tax advantages for charitable giving, so it is a wonderful way to support our cause while taking advantage of these tax incentives. On May 2, 2006, the federal government eliminated the capital gains tax on donations of publicly listed securities to registered charities.

Therefore, you will not pay any income tax on the capital gain that may be triggered by your donation to Hospice Care Ottawa. In contrast, if the securities are sold and the cash is then donated, 50% of the capital gain is taxable.

A gift of securities is straight forward. Please complete the form below with your broker.
