Donating publicly traded stock and securities is a tax-smart way to support The Greater Vancouver Food Bank.
Donating securities directly avoids tax on capital gains, maximizes the return on your investment and protects the tax credits for use against other taxable income.
You will also receive a tax receipt for the full appreciated value of a donation of publicly traded stock or securities, and the transfer is easy and fast.
