PLANNED GIVING

Planned Giving simply means planning now for a gift which a charity will receive sometime in the future. A donor makes a commitment to make a future gift through their Will, life insurance policy or a range of other gift options, often with excellent tax advantages.

Planned gifts should be carefully considered to ensure that your philanthropic dreams to help The Boys and Girls Club of East Scarborough are met while maximizing the tax benefit to you.

STOCKS AND SECURITIES GIVING

Donating publicly traded stock and securities is a tax-smart way to support the Boys and Girls Club of East Scarborough. You will receive a tax receipt for the full appreciated value of a donation of publicly traded stock or securities, and as of May 2, 2006, you will.

The simplest way to make your gift of stock or securities is to have the shares electronically transferred from your account to ESBGC's account. The receipt value will be based on the closing trading price on the day U of T receives delivery of the shares. As with any gift, you may designate the use of the value of the securities or leave the gift unrestricted.
