Gift of Securities Calculator
If you own publicly traded securities, mutual funds, or flow through shares, you may want to consider donating them directly to CNIB. Canadians can donate their publicly traded securities or mutual funds without incurring the Capital gain tax. Capital gains on donated shares are not taxed. This may provide a greater benefit to you than donating cash.
Please note that this calculator is an approximation and is intended for illustration purposes only. There may be additional tax benefits to donating flow through shares.
