Donating shares, bonds and units of mutual funds helps The Gideons International In Canada distribute God’s Word worldwide.
Gifts of publicly-listed securities to charitable organizations are not subject to capital gains. Your official receipt for income tax purposes will be valued at the closing price on the day when the shares are legally transferred to The Gideons International In Canada’s account at our custodial agent, Berkshire Securities Inc. (Please note: Shares are considered legally transferred only when delivery is confirmed by our custodial agent.) It is our policy to sell all shares as soon as possible after they have been received.
