Benefits of Planned Giving

Planned gifts can take many forms such as gifts in a Will, or gifts of cash, stock, real estate or other property. By planning your giving, you can realize valuable tax savings and benefits.

These donations can allow you to:

Consider the financial needs of a spouse or loved one
Reduce your income tax and/or avoid capital gains
Increase your current income
Make a larger charitable gift than you thought possible

Gifts in your Will

By making gifts in your Will to TLC you are helping our ongoing efforts to save vital habitat for wildlife throughout B.C. Your legacy gift will not only carry on your conservation goals after your lifetime but will also result in a tax receipt to your estate that can be used to reduce any taxes owing.
