Planned giving,
an invaluable legacy

Regardless of your income and your age, planned giving allows you to make a significant charitable gift that will support our mission in the fight against addiction, and benefit from tax savings in your financial and estate planning.

Types of donations

Will and legacy

By planning in your will your wish to bequeath a sum of money, tangible or intangible assets, or any other asset to the Fondation Jean Lapointe, you ensure that your contribution is fulfilled after your passing.

Life insurance

You can designate the Fondation Jean Lapointe as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy. This allows you to make a substantial gift while maintaining control over your finances during your lifetime.

Public securities

If you own stocks, bonds, mutual funds or stock options, shares or purchase options, you can transfer them directly to the Fondation Jean Lapointe. This helps reduce capital gains taxes and maximize your contribution.

Registered funds

A gift of an RRSP (Registered Retirement Savings Plan) or RRIF (Registered Retirement Income Fund) allows you to bequeath all or part of your retirement savings. This type of gift can provide significant tax benefits for the estate.
