Donate to
Loran

The easiest way to support the Loran Scholars Foundation is to donate securely online. Tax receipts for online donations are issued the day that you make your donation.

Some donors prefer to establish pre-authorized monthly donations rather than making an annual donation to the Loran Scholars Foundation. A single cumulative tax receipt is issued in January for monthly donations made in the previous taxation year.

If you would prefer to donate by cheque, please make your donation payable to the Loran Scholars Foundation and mail it to:
Loran Scholars Foundation
42 Bell Manor Drive
Etobicoke, ON M8Y 0A4

Please contact Lily Manea, Director of Operations, directly
at 416.646.2120 x 223 or lily.manea@loranscholar.ca.

If you would like a US tax receipt, you may prefer to donate to Friends of Canadian Education, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.

A convenient and tax-efficient way to manage charitable giving, allowing donors to maximize the impact of their contributions.

Leaving a Legacy of Character, Service & Leadership

A gift in your will to the Loran Scholars Foundation helps ensure that future generations of young people across Canada have the opportunity to develop their potential to lead with integrity. Legacy gifts sustain Loran’s long-term stability and strengthen the leadership development experiences that shape scholars during and beyond their undergraduate studies.

Including a bequest is simple, and it can be adapted to your personal circumstances:

– A general bequest helps Loran respond to emerging needs.
– A specific purpose bequest allows you to support the Loran Award, leadership development programming, or Loran’s endowment.
– A residual bequest ensures your loved ones are looked after first, with the remainder advancing Loran’s mission.

We encourage donors to consult their advisors to choose the option that best reflects their values and long-term wishes.

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.

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.

If you would like to contribute to our endowment fund, please let us know when you donate in any of the above ways. A contribution to the endowment fund must be at least $10,000. For more information, contact Meghan Moore at meghan.moore@loranscholar.ca or 416.646.2120 x222.
