Does your employer (or your
spouse’s employer) have a
matching gift program? If so,
you can ask your company to
match your support for Mission
Paws’ible. You can double or even
triple the value of your donation
simply by notifying your employer
of your gift. Mission Paws’ible
maintains a database of many
matching gift companies.
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a
charitable giving program that
allows you to combine the most
favourable tax benefits with the
flexibility to support your favourite causes. DAF Direct enables you to recommend grants to Mission Paws’ible directly from your DAF
(as long as your DAF’s sponsoring organisation is participating).
Making a gift of securities offers you the chance to help Mission Paws’ible while realising many important benefits for yourself.
A stock portfolio is often among the most valuable assets you own and one that carries substantial capital gain — appreciation in value. With careful planning, you can reduce or even avoid federal capital gains tax. Mission
Paws’ible can show you how
charitable giving may be one of
your best defences.
