Benefits
Financial Stewardship Through Collaboration
The Endowment Fund is administered by the Greater Saint John Community Foundation, an organization with extensive knowledge and expertise in the responsible management of endowment funds.
GIFT OF SECURITIES
The Benefits Are Clear
If you sell a security, you pay tax on 50% of the capital gain. However, if you donate a gift of securities to United Way the taxable capital gain is completely eliminated AND you receive a tax receipt for the full market value of the security in the amount of the closing trading price on the day United Way receives the security. This multiplies the impact of the tax benefit of your charitable giving.
