Donate Securities to the Calgary Food Bank
Publicly traded securities can be donated directly to the Calgary Food Bank, without incurring a Capital Gain Tax. Recent changes to the Income Tax Act have removed the capital gains tax on donated shares.

Donations to a charity made via donating securities can provide a greater benefit to the donor than donating cash. If you wish to make a donation of publicly traded securities today, please contact the Calgary Food Bank at 403-319-0831 to request a Gift of Securities Transfer Form.

Here is an example outlining the benefit for a donor (assumes at personal tax rate of 39%)

This secure page enables you to make an immediate online donation to continue help providing food for those in need. Your personal information is just that, yours. We do not share or sell your information, nor do we store your credit card information on our system.

Every $1 donated to the Food Bank
allows us to distribute $4 worth of food.
