The Benefits of our Monthly Giving Program:

- Effective – You are providing a dependable source of income to support the needs of in-home palliative care in our community.
Have you ever thought about what you would like your legacy to be or how you like to be remembered?
This is a question that many of us think about at some point, and perhaps more so when a friend or a loved one experiences the need for palliative care. With only an estimated 30% of those who need in-home palliative care able to access it, the demand for ongoing support is great. Our community-based palliative care organizations do great work – incredible work – but they don’t have enough funding.
Your future legacy gift will help the OutCare Foundation fund our community’s most crucial palliative care needs – it will help to improve someone’s quality of life.

Tribute giving is a great way to honour someone while making an impact in our region.
Honour someone – The OutCare Foundation is privileged to receive gifts in honour of others. Honour gifts are a great way for you to recognize someone who has made a difference in your life or in the palliative care community. They also offer you the opportunity to give the gift of a donation in honour of a special celebration or anniversary. With your permission, we will share your message with the individual being honoured. The amount of your gift will not be disclosed, and you will receive a tax receipt for your generous contribution.
Memorial donations – Donating in memory of someone who has passed away is a wonderful way to honour their life. You will receive a tax receipt for your generous gift and can choose to have a message acknowledging your thoughtful donation sent to the bereaved family or another designated recipient.
It’s easy to support palliative care through the United Way Campaign and the Government of Canada Workplace Charitable Campaign. You can designate your campaign gift by listing the OutCare Foundation’s charitable business number 88074 5286 RR0001.
In recent years, tax changes have made it even more attractive to donate publicly traded securities. This method of donating allows you to make a significant donation while greatly reducing your out-of-pocket cost. Each donor’s financial situation is unique, and donors are encouraged to explore the impact on their portfolios directly with their financial advisor.
You will receive a charitable receipt for the value of the securities at the close of the market on the date that ownership is transferred to the Foundation. Contact us for more information.

These gifts have benefits for both the donor and the charity. As a donor, you can choose to make a much larger future contribution while enjoying the benefit of a charitable receipt today or delaying the benefit of a receipt until the funds are transferred to the Foundation.
Please keep in mind that each donor’s situation is unique and the options available to you will vary based on your personal circumstances and the policy you choose.
