GIFTS OF SECURITIES

Contributing a Gift of Securities to Wellspring Calgary is an easy and tax-smart way to ensure that necessary supports, programs and resources are available for individuals and their families who are healing after a cancer diagnosis. Your gift can either be applied as an immediate donation, or for those interested, can be received as an Endowment Gift of Security. In either case, your gift will make a difference forever, as Wellspring Calgary continues to offer its supports and resources, free of charge, with no referral, for as long or as briefly as needed.

Making a Gift of Securities has never been better. Since the 2006 Federal Budget eliminated the capital gains tax for donations to registered charities, it has become even more financially advantageous for you to give in this manner. You will receive a tax receipt for the full appreciated value of your donation without incurring any capital gains tax.

Wellspring Calgary makes it easy to make Gifts of Securities by offering a streamlined electronic transfer process:
