When you make a gift of securities to CPAWS, you are joining the fight to protect biodiversity across British Columbia. When publicly traded securities are transferred to a registered charity, the tax on capital gains is eliminated, and you may receive a tax receipt for the full amount of your gift. We encourage you to speak to a financial adviser to determine the details of your donation.
Divest and Donate for Nature
In the face of a global climate crisis, it is no longer possible to deny the need to embrace renewable energy and a carbon neutral future. Powerful investors like New York City, the Republic of Ireland, and numerous universities and foundations have already stepped away from dirty investments like fossil-fuel extraction. You can divest assets such as stocks and mutual funds by donating them to CPAWS, and put your money to good use: defending clean water, fresh air, and the spectacular land and seascape that make British Columbia beautiful.
For more information on gifts of securities, please contact Sarah McNeil, Development Manager at sarah@cpawsbc.org or 604-685-7445 ext 33.
