Publicly Listed Securities

There is no capital gains tax on listed securities that are donated to registered Canadian charities such as Brentwood College School, and you will receive an official receipt for income tax purposes for the value of the stocks. There are particular advantages to donating flow-through shares. Please contact Ian McPherson for details. 

US Donors & International Transfers

For US residents, or US Tax Receipt purposes, you can make your donation via FRISBE (Friends of Independent Schools and Better Education) https://www.frisbe.org/ and receive a US tax receipt (FRISBE explained). Print and fill out this form and mail it with your cheque, payable to FRISBE, to 117 E. Louisa Street, #533, Seattle, WA 98102.

International transfers: To transfer funds from outside of Canada directly to Brentwood please use Flywire. Because many transactions on student accounts are being made every day, it is important that we are able to trace all transactions.

Other Ways To Giving

  • Real Estate and In-Kind Gifts. Individuals may donate land, buildings, or other assets such as artwork, to Brentwood College School. Such gifts are appraised on the date received and an official tax receipt is issued for the appraised value.

  • Bequests. Gifts made through a will are important legacies to provide for the future of Brentwood College School.  If you are planning to make a provision for the School, we would appreciate being advised so we can recognize your generosity. A gift may be stated as a specific dollar amount, a percentage of the estate, or the residual of the estate.  

  • Trust Funds. A trust can be established in memory of someone or for a specific purpose. We will be pleased to discuss options that are mutually beneficial to both the individual and the School.

  • Life insurance provides an affordable way to make a significant non-taxable contribution because the proceeds are completely separate from your estate. By establishing a life insurance policy in Brentwood's name, you can benefit from immediate tax deductions on your monthly premiums.

  • Real Estate or "In-Kind" gifts. Individuals may donate land, buildings, or other assets such as artwork, to Brentwood College School. Such gifts are appraised on the date received and an official tax receipt is issued for the appraised value.
