Ways to Donate
Make a Legacy Gift
Planning a gift in a will that will help your community into the future can bring a sense of peace and joy. Planned gifts, or bequests, are gifts left in a will that are intended for the future without affecting the donor’s current income. There are many different tax advantages to these types of gifts.
Have you considered purchasing a life insurance policy in the name of GBHF? There are many tax perks to this option. Your premiums are tax deductible annually. Among other uses, Life Insurance policies are a way to build GBHF’s ability to care for our beautiful building for decades to come.
Gifts that involve a donation of stocks, securities, insurance, personal and real property in lieu of cash are accepted by Grey Bruce Hospice Foundation. A tax receipt can be provided for the fair market value of these gifts.
Donors considering any type of legacy gift are encouraged to first speak to their personal financial advisor and/or lawyer. Once you have made your decision on making a bequeath or for more information, contact our Donor Engagement & Fundraising Manager or phone (519) 370-7239.
A movement is building across the country. Over 3 million Canadians have left a gift in their Will to charity! This trend in “ethical wills” has surged in the past three years, and it’s no surprise! With so much change in the world highlighting new and growing needs, more people than ever are looking for ways to make an impact.
Grey Bruce Hospice Foundation has partnered with Will Power, a national campaign that educates Canadians about the power of leaving a charitable gift in their Will. We all want to help where we can and make our mark on the world. This movement is about finding a way to do that, while still protecting your finances and family’s future.
