Donations

Donate On-Line: Donations can be made to the museum directly through Canada Helps, an organization which allows donors the ability to donate to registered charities on-line, through an easy, secure transaction. You will receive an e-receipt within minutes of your donation, which you can save and print out at any time.

Brokerage Account: Recently, a brokerage account has been opened to allow donors to contribute financial instruments other than cash, and has received gifts of stocks, bonds, mutual funds and the like. Presently, this particular type of donation receives very special tax considerations and has new benefits for the donor. A financial advisor can best provide the essential information to anyone considering this approach.

In Memoriam: Another recently popular way of gifting to the Foundation has been “In Memoriam”. These are donations in memory of deceased family members and friends in lieu of floral tributes. The Foundation has ‘In Memoriam’ cards available; please the Foundation for more information.

Bequests: Finally, some supporters choose to remember the Foundation by way of bequests in their personal wills. Such gifts could be of benefit to the estate and should be discussed with that individual.
