YOUR SUPPORT, THE WIND BENEATH THEIR WINGS
Excellence and social involvement are values that characterize the CPA profession, which is why the Foundation is committed to recognizing and rewarding aspiring CPAs and professors who adopt these values. But to achieve this, the Foundation needs your help!
Many ways to support the Foundation

The transfer of shares entitles the donor to a full tax exemption on the capital gain on the shares, as well as a charitable tax receipt for the current value of the donated shares. The value of the donation is calculated on the basis of the market closing price on the day the certificate is transferred or, for electronic transfers, on the day the marketable shares are received by the Foundation's broker.
This type of gift is particularly advantageous if you own shares that have appreciated in value over the years.

Planned giving is a funding program that serves the interests of the registered charity. Its purpose is generally to create an endowment fund, the capital of which will be permanently preserved to ensure the survival of the charity and its activities. An endowment fund can be created through a variety of means, such as a gift of life insurance, bequests or gifts of assets.
If you would like to make this type of donation to the CPA Foundation, we recommend that you consult your legal and financial advisors to arrange your donation.
