Leave a Legacy

 

 


MSS is a proud member of LEAVE A LEGACY™ Manitoba, an initiative of the Canadian Association of Gift Planners to promote interest in charitable giving through a will or an estate plan. LEAVE A LEGACY™ MANITOBA is a collaborative effort involving professional advisors and charitable organizations including social service agencies, foundations, educational institutions, health organizations and other religious, environmental and philanthropic groups.

The Canadian Association of Gift Planners brings together professionals from various disciplines to ensure that the gift planning process achieves a fair and proper balance between the interests of donors and the aims and objectives of registered charitable organizations in Canada in accordance with the Association's Standards of Professional and Ethical Practice.

The purpose of the Association is to support Philanthropy by fostering the development and growth of gift planning. The Association creates awareness, provides education and is an advocate of charitable giving.

Every day in Manitoba, people’s lives are enriched by the work of charitable organizations in our communities. Meals for isolated seniors, summer jobs for disadvantaged high school students, funding for mental health or cancer research, a live performance by a local arts organization - these are just some of the ways charitable organizations improve our lives. Financial assistance is essential to support this work.

A vast majority of Manitobans generously give their money and time to local charities. But many people are unaware that by making a planned gift to the charities of their choice, they can continue to help people in need or promote a favourite cause. And there may be tax benefits to these gifts.

Leaving a legacy provides a unique opportunity for you to promote planned giving to charitable organizations. For more information on LEAVE A LEGACY™, go to their website at www.leavealegacy.mb.ca
