Support conservation
Your donation is more than a one-time gift — it’s a lasting investment.
When it comes to protecting nature and providing refuge for wildlife, timelines are measured in years, decades, or even longer.
Wills & Estates
Parks and protected areas are a legacy for future generations, one that you can be a part of.
Leaving a bequest or planned gift to CPAWS for work in British Columbia means that you are remembered as a protector of nature without impacting your financial security today. Making a bequest can be as simple as including a single phrase in your will or estate plan, or a more nuanced approach involving property or other assets. We recommend contacting your financial planner or lawyer to find a path that works best for you and your loved ones.
Sample wording: I give the sum of $___ (or an amount equal to ___%) of my estate to the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society for its work in British Columbia.
Gifts of Securities
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.
For more information on gifts of securities, please contact Sarah McNeil, Executive Director at sarah@cpawsbc.org or
