Information about Giving

Cheque

Cheques can be made payable to “Red Deer Dream Centre”. For donations over $20 you will receive a charitable donation receipt for the year in which the contribution was made. Please note we do not accept cash donations.

Credit Card

You can donate directly to the Dream Centre at any time by credit card (Visa or MasterCard) through our secure account at CanadaHelps.org. You may want to consider setting up monthly gift through your credit card. This is an easy way to give and, if at any time you want to stop, increase or decrease the amount, just contact us.

Publicly Traded Securities

A gift of publicly-traded securities is the transfer of ownership of stocks or bonds to Red Deer Dream Centre. If you own shares that have increased in value, 50 per cent of the capital gains are taxable. However, if you donate these shares in-kind to Red Deer Dream Centre, the entire gain is tax-exempt. You can donate securely via CanadaHelps.org.

Options for Giving Later

There are also ways to give to Red Deer Dream Centre at a later date.

Will Bequest

Leave a bequest to Red Deer Dream Centre in your Will. Red Deer Dream Centre will provide an official receipt for income tax purposes to your estate when it receives the bequest. Bequests can be a specific dollar amount or a residual gift (the entire residue or portion of your estate). Bequests can be given either outright or as a contingent gift.

Life Insurance

By naming Red Deer Dream Centre as the beneficiary of your life insurance policy, you can provide a sizeable future gift to our organization at an affordable current cost, without reducing what you give to family and friends through your estate. If you designate Red Deer Dream Centre as the irrevocable beneficiary or owner and beneficiary of your life insurance policy, we will be able to provide you with an official receipt for income tax purposes for the amount of premium you pay each year.

RRSP/RRIF/TFSA

Name the Red Deer Dream Centre as the beneficiary of your Registered Retirement Savings Plan, Registered Retirement Income Fund or Tax Free Savings Account and make a significant donation, while saving your Estate from paying probate tax on the proceeds.
