Support the Saskatoon SPCA with Gifts of Securities

Donating publicly traded securities is a tax-smart way to support the Saskatoon SPCA and make a lasting impact on the lives of animals in need.

Gifts of securities include stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, providing significant tax benefits while helping us continue our mission.

 

Benefits of Donating Securities

Tax Advantages: When you donate appreciated securities directly to the Saskatoon SPCA, you may avoid capital gains tax. Additionally, you will receive a charitable tax receipt for the full market value of the securities on the date they are transferred.

Easy Process: The process of donating securities is straightforward and can be completed quickly, allowing you to support the Saskatoon SPCA efficiently.

Maximum Impact: By donating securities, you can provide substantial support to our programs and services, helping us care for more animals and expand our reach in the community.

 

How to Donate Securities

Contact Your Financial Advisor: Speak with your financial advisor to determine which securities to donate and the potential tax benefits for your situation.

Notify the Saskatoon SPCA: Let us know about your intention to donate securities. You can contact us via phone or email to provide details about your planned gift.

Transfer the Securities: Your financial advisor will initiate the transfer of securities to the Saskatoon SPCA's brokerage account. We will provide you with the necessary account information to complete the transfer.

Receive a Tax Receipt: Once the transfer is complete, we will send you a charitable tax receipt for the full market value of the securities on the date they were transferred.
