Aeroplan Points
Since we pay part of the costs for finalists to travel from their hometowns throughout Canada to Toronto for national interviews, we greatly appreciate donations of Aeroplan Points to mitigate the cost of flights. In generous sponsorship of our mission, Aeroplan presently matches up to 500,000 points per year. Donate miles here.
-
Publicly listed securities
Some donors prefer to donate publicly listed securities that have appreciated in value. The May 2006 federal budget made such in-kind donations of listed securities advantageous in terms of tax savings by exempting the capital gains from tax. If you are interested in donating publicly listed securities, please call Lily Manea at 416.646.2120 x223. To expedite these types of transactions, we encourage donors to use our donation of securities form.
