A donation of stocks, securities or mutual fund shares is an efficient way to give charitably and receive tax credit.
When you donate your securities directly to Youth HQ, capital gains aren’t subject to tax. We receive a larger gift, and you benefit from a tax receipt for the full value of your eligible securities or mutual funds.
We work with SERVUS Credit Union and Canada Helps to receive gifts of securities.
Please contact us if you have any questions.
