The Jarislowsky Fraser Donor
Advised Foundation mission is to assist in providing
long term revenue for Canadian charities. This
registered public foundation is a vehicle which
allows you to donate cash or securities, receive an
immediate tax receipt for the full amount of the donation
and recommend which charities will receive the future income
stream from your contributed capital.
Potential benefits of a
donation to the Jarislowsky Fraser Donor Advised Foundation: |
|
|
▪ |
As of the
May 2006 Federal Budget you will not pay capital gains tax on any
securities donated to the Foundation. This is especially attractive
for those shares you hold that have a very low cost base and a high
current market value.
|
|
|
▪ |
You can maintain long term name recognition (YOUR FAMILY NAME) for donations
to qualified Canadian charities.
|
|
|
▪ |
This
foundation has one of the lowest costs in the industry and
therefore represents a cost effective alternative to establishing and
running your own foundation.
|

immediately while maintaining the ability to recommend where the
future yearly income payments are donated.
