For more information on the benefits of becoming a donor and the giving options available, please contact us.
Gifts of Cash
This is an easy and simple way to give to the Foundation. You receive a donation receipt for the full amount and have the immediate satisfaction of seeing your gift at work.
GIFTS OF PUBLICLY TRADED SECURITIES
Gifts of stocks or bonds will result in a donation receipt for the fair market value and favourable tax credits help offset any tax and capital gains.
Gifts of real estate
A gift of real estate will result in a donation receipt for the fair market value of the property, even if it is not your principal residence.
GIFTS OF LIFE INSURANCE
This option can provide a substantial gift at a modest cost. If you designate the Fredericton Community Foundation as the owner and beneficiary of a life insurance policy, you receive a tax receipt for your premiums.
Gifts of other property
Assets, such as shares in privately held companies, debentures, royalty interests or works of art can be given to the Foundation. Donation receipts will be issued for the fair market value. Tax credits help to offset tax on any associated capital gain.
