Securities Giving

←  Back to Other Donation Options
A gift of publicly traded securities, such as stocks, mutual funds, or ETFs, can be one of the most tax-efficient ways to support.

By donating securities directly, you may avoid paying capital gains tax on the appreciated value of the asset while also receiving a charitable tax receipt for the full fair market value of the gift. That can mean a greater impact for wildlife, and potentially greater tax savings for you.

How It Works

Exposed Wildlife Conservancy accepts gifts of securities through CanadaHelps.

Once you complete the form below:

  1. You will receive instructions and a Letter of Direction to send to your investment firm.
  2. Your securities will be transferred to CanadaHelps on our behalf.
  3. CanadaHelps will facilitate the sale of the securities.
  4. You will receive a charitable tax receipt for the eligible amount.
  5. The proceeds of the sale will be disbursed to Exposed Wildlife Conservancy, less applicable processing fees.
