The 3 Types of Donations

Share Donation

A share donation is an efficient way to support our organization while qualifying for tax benefits. By giving shares or stocks listed on the stock exchange, you can avoid paying taxes on the accumulated capital gain while receiving a tax receipt for the total value of your donation. This type of donation is particularly interesting if you have shares that have substantially increased their value since you bought them.

Life Insurance Donation

The life insurance donation is a powerful, often underestimated contribution method. You can designate our organization as the owner or recipient of your life insurance policy. Upon your decease, the value of the policy will be given to Moisson Outaouais, thus contributing to our cause in a significant manner. Furthermore, according to the structure of your donation, you could benefit from advantageous tax benefits during your life.

A testamentary donation is a commitment to make a charitable donation from your estate after your death. This type of donation may represent a specific amount of money, or a percentage of your estate or a specific property. Testamentary donations are flexible and can be modified any time according to your financial needs. Besides the sustainable impact your donation will have, it can also reduce the taxes owed by your estate.
