You can improve the lives of people with pain and reduce your tax burden when you donate publicly listed securities such as mutual funds, stocks or bonds to Pain BC.
Tax-advantages of donating securities
If you donate securities that have realized capital gains to a registered charity like Pain BC, you will not be taxed on the capital gain and you will also receive a charitable tax receipt for the fair market value of the securities that you can then use to reduce your taxes. If you transfer securities that have incurred capital losses, you can apply the loss to reduce your taxes on capital gains realized in the past three years and you also receive a charitable tax receipt that can be applied this year or within the next four years. Please contact your financial advisor for more information on capital gains and losses.
