How Donations Work
A donation can be made to the Foundation as a present gift (those occurring during an individual’s lifetime) and as a deferred gift (those occurring upon the death of an individual.) Present gifts can assist the Foundation immediately and help the donor through tax credits and savings on capital gains. Deferred gifts will help the Foundation at a future date, while also serving to benefit the donor’s estate.
Funds may be invested as an endowment fund to generate income, in perpetuity, for charitable causes. They may also be spent promptly as per the donor’s wishes. All contributions to the Foundation are managed responsibly by a group of community leaders who are dedicated to preserving and enhancing the quality of life in our region.
