You should take as much care in deciding how to share your assets as you did in building them.

Leaving a Legacy has never been so easy

From tax benefits to very personal giving options, planned giving can provide you with a number of meaningful ways to extend your legacy and make an impact on future generations.

What are Planned Gifts?Planned giving allows you to make a financial contribution that you may not be able to currently give.

There are many options when it comes to leaving a legacy including a gift in your Will, life insurance, stock, endowment fund, RSP, RIF, or Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA).Are there Tax Benefits?

There are valuable tax incentives to making a planned gift. They include eliminating or reducing capital gains from gifts of securities and tax credits to your estate when leaving a charitable gift in your Will. What about my Loved Ones?

A great feature of planned giving is that you can ensure your loved ones are taken care of and support charities that are meaningful to you at the same time.
