Planned Giving
Many of you generously make gift of your time and money to SOPAR. Did you know that by providing a gift in your will or your estate plan, you could, after your death, continue to help those in need and promote the causes that are dear to you, while benefiting from interesting tax savings.
What can you do to ensure SOPAR’s future?
In your will:
You can leave:
- a specific amount
- a percentage of your estate
- the residual of your estate
- an asset
- product of a life insurance policy, a RRSP, RRIF or a percentage of your retirement fund
Charitable legacies entitle you to non-refundable taxes. To learn more about tax benefits for your estate consult your notary, your financial advisor and visit the following sites:
Donation through life insurance
You can assign your life insurance policy or designate SOPAR as beneficiary of your policy.
Donation of Publicly Traded Stocks
You can make a donation of publicly traded shares to SOPAR, and benefit from the same tax advantages as if you would have made a cash donation. This helps you avoid any capital gain taxes that you would have incurred had you sold these shares to make a cash donation. You can consult your financial consultant for additional information.
SOPAR Foundation was established to ensure the continuity of SOPAR’s work in India, to provide a reliable and growing source of revenue and, finally, to provide an alternative to public financing in case of difficult times. Donations towards the Foundation allow donors to ensure the organization's future, its values and its solidarity work.
