Planned Giving: An Epilogue to the Story of Your Life
How would you like to be remembered? With a little thought and planning, you can leave a legacy that will outlast you! M2S partners with Christian Stewardship Services (CSS) for the purposes of growth, not only for today, but also for tomorrow. CSS can assist you in your planning by taking a look at your financial portfolio and determining the most beneficial way to give. You can find out more about CSS, what they do and how you can use their services by visiting their website.

Did you know you can donate stocks or mutual funds all while saving taxes?
Since 2006, Canada’s federal government has allowed for tax incentives that make it beneficial for you to donate stocks or mutual funds instead of cash. If your securities have increased in value, at the time of sale you will generate a capital gains tax. But, by donating these stocks or mutual funds directly to a charity, you eliminate the capital gains tax and you will get a tax-deductible receipt for the full market value of your stocks/mutual funds. Eligible securities are publicly-traded stocks (including Canadian and US stocks) or mutual funds.
Before making any gifts, talk to your personal Financial Advisor. If you do not have one, contact CSS for a free consultation.
