Securities

With a gift of securities, the capital gains tax does not apply, allowing you to give more at no extra cost. You receive a double tax benefit with the elimination of the capital gains tax along with a charitable tax receipt for your donation. A gift of securities, therefore, benefits you more than giving cash and allows you to make a larger gift.

This is a great way to show your commitment and belief that every animal deserves a life worth living, that World Animal Protection can find long-term sustainable solutions to stop animal exploitation, cruelty and suffering.

The benefits of donating securities

• Allows you to amplify the impact of your gift
• You pay no tax on the capital gains that have accumulated on the securities
• You receive a charitable tax receipt based on the fair market value of the securities on the date (closing price) the securities are received

*If you are thinking about transferring assets that have appreciated, you should seek expert advice from a tax specialist, your broker or qualified financial adviser.
