Securities
Donate publicly traded securities or mutual funds directly to the Foundation and make your charitable gift go further. Because capital gains tax does not apply to eligible securities donated directly to a charity, the Foundation receives the full fair market value when they are sold, and you receive a charitable tax receipt for the value of your gift. Contact Karen Clarke at info@squamishfoundation.com before making your transfer so we can help coordinate your donation.
Insurance
A life insurance policy can be used to make a significant future charitable gift, either by naming the Foundation as a beneficiary or transferring ownership of a policy.
