ONTARIO SAILING - Ways to Help
There are many ways a donor may choose to support Ontario Sailing. The following list provides a summary of the various options available. Donors can give to support the current work of Ontario Sailing or future initiatives. Whatever method is chosen, we want the investment to be the right fit for the donor and we strongly urge all donors to discuss their wishes with a financial advisor.
GIVING FOR TODAY
Gifts to Support Ontario Sailing's Current Work
-
Cash Contributions: Maybe a one-time gift or a gift pledge over multiple years. Donor will receive a tax receipt for the full amount of the gift.
-
Gifts of Publicly-Listed Securities: Includes gifts of shares, bonds and mutual funds.
-
Tribute Gifts (In Memoriam or In Honour): You may honour an individual by giving your gift in their memory or in their honour.
GIVING FOR TOMORROW
Gifts to Support Ontario Sailing's Future
-
Bequests: Make provision in your will by giving a specific item such as shares of stock, by specifying cash gift or by leaving a portion of whatever remains of your estates after all debts, taxes and other bequests have been paid. Your estate receives the full tax relief of your gift.
-
Life Insurance: Gifts of life insurance allow donors to turn a relatively small gift now into a large gift in the future. You can purchase a new policy and assign ownership to Ontario Sailing, name Ontario Sailing as a beneficiary, or give a paid-up policy.
-
RRSP/RRIF Contributions: According to Revenue Canada, 100% of the remaining balance of any registered savings must be added to income in the year of death. By making a charitable contribution of an RRSP or RRIF, a donor could save considerable tax.
