Planned Giving – Supporting the Future of the Centre
There are many ways to support the Anishinabe Spiritual Centre through planned giving allowing you to make a meaningful contribution while planning thoughtfully for the future.
A planned gift can take many forms, including a gift made through your will, which allows you to support the Centre’s mission without impacting your current financial commitments. These gifts help sustain the Centre’s work over time, supporting retreats, programs, and the ongoing sharing of Anishinabe teachings and the Catholic faith.
Planned giving is a personal decision. A conversation with the Centre is often the best place to begin. Our team is available to answer questions and help you explore options in a way that is thoughtful and unhurried.
Ways to Give
Leave a Gift in Your Will
A simple and meaningful way to support the Centre’s future, allowing you to make a lasting contribution without affecting your finances today.
You include the Centre in your estate plans, helping sustain its work for future generations, while maintaining full use of your assets during your lifetime.
Gifts of Securities or Property
Donations of stocks, bonds, or real estate may offer significant tax advantages, including reduced capital gains, while supporting the Centre in a meaningful way.
You donate publicly traded shares and receive a charitable tax receipt, while avoiding capital gains tax on the appreciated value.
Life Insurance & Annuities
Naming the Centre as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy or establishing a charitable gift annuity can create a substantial future gift, sometimes while providing income during your lifetime.
You name the Centre as a beneficiary of a policy, creating a significant future contribution at a relatively low current cost.
A Charitable Gift Annuity
You make a one-time gift and receive fixed monthly payments for life. In many cases, a portion of this income may be tax-free, along with an immediate charitable tax receipt.ming
