Making a gift of stock or registered securities to Norfolk General Hospital Foundation can offer an attractive investment in a better future for people everywhere.

There may be significant tax advantages in donating your shares of publicly traded securities directly to Norfolk General Hospital Foundation, rather than selling the shares and donating the proceeds. According to Canada Revenue Agency, the tax owing on any capital gain that you may have accumulated is now tax exempt.

A gift of appreciated securities is a highly tax-effective gift option, whether given today or in the future through a charitable bequest in your will.
