Donating Cash

Download and complete the "Charitable Donation of Cash" form and attach your cheque or money order, payable to Canada Gives, directed to the name of your account.

Tracking for Tax Purposes

A tax receipt for each donation will be issued promptly upon receipt of cheque, money order or securities.

Since all of your receipts are tracked on your consolidated report, we can easily replace one that is missing when you file your annual tax return

 

Third-Party Donations

Your Canada Gives Account can include donations from friends, family, businesses etc. The donation forms include a separate section for third-party donors. The tax receipt will be issued to the specific donor, but the funds will be added to your Account, to be included in the annual grants to the charities of your choice.
