RE: SECURITIES AS A CHARITABLE GIFT OPTION

SECURITIES AS A CHARITABLE GIFT OPTION

A gift of securities (stocks, bonds, mutual funds) is still one of the most financially sound ways to support the Archdiocese of Toronto.  When you donate stocks, mutual funds, and other publicly traded securities to a registered charity, you pay no capital gains tax and receive a tax receipt for the full amount of the gift.  It means a great tax break for you and more significant support of your Parish and various archdiocesan charities such as ShareLife, St. Augustine’s Seminary, The Shepherds’ Trust, and many others.

To donate securities, follow this link: https://www.archtoronto.org/en/offices-and-ministries/social-justice--outreach/development-and-sharelife/home/gifts-of-securities/ to download:
