CREATE A GIFT PLAN
The creation of a legacy gift is a personal choice and it is important that you create the plan that works best for you. Contact Violeta at 403-569-3325 or at v.vasileva@centrefornewcomers.ca if you have any questions, or thoughts on what you envision your legacy could be.
LIFE INSURANCE
​
There are two ways to give through life insurance:
​
-
Designate the Centre for Newcomers as a beneficiary of your policy. The tax receipt will help reduce estate taxes. By changing ownership of the policy to the Centre for Newcomers you will create a future legacy and receive an annual tax receipt for the premiums paid.
​
-
With a full life policy (fully paid) a tax receipt is issued for the cash surrender value of the policy at the time of the gift.
CHARITABLE TRUST
​
-
Gift an asset like your house while you continue to live in your home on a life estate basis.
​
-
A tax receipt is issued today for a calculated future value of the house.
​
-
The Centre for Newcomers will take possession when you no longer need the house.​
RETIREMENT FUNDS
​
There are two ways to give RRSPs:
​
-
Obtain consent from Canada Revenue Agency to donate RRSP or RRIF funds (or spousal RRSP) to a charity.
​
-
Designate the Centre for Newcomers as the beneficiary and tax receipt will help reduce estate taxes.
A BEQUEST
​
-
Talk with your family about your plan to make a gift through your will and why it is important to you.
-
Meet with your trusted advisors to discuss how to fit the gift into your long-term financial plan and will. -
