In its 2006 budget, the Canadian government announced it eliminated capital gains tax on listed stocks donated to registered charities such as the Ecomuseum zoo. Acceptable listed securities for donations include stocks, bonds and mutual funds.
This easy and advantageous method of supporting the Ecomuseum zoo’s mission is interesting for donors that have assets through stocks. To better understand the advantages of donating registered securities, please read this simple information sheet.
Determining when and how to make a gift of securities, and which securities to donate, will depend on your personal financial situation. The Ecomuseum zoo recommends that you discuss your options with your financial planner and with your family.
Help us increase environmental awareness in our community. Consider making a gift of registered securities, the process is simple and the impact is great!
Should you need more information or should you like to get the appropriate form to send to your broker, please contact Ms. Ligia Peña, Fundraising Officer.
