On the CanadaHelps page, you'll see a Fund dropdown. If you're not sure where to direct your gift, we recommend our Umbrella Fund, which supports what our region needs most each year.
Make it payable to Le Roi Community Foundation and mail to:
PO Box 3, Trail, BC V1R 4L3
Le Roi Community Foundation accepts gifts of publicly-traded securities and mutual funds. These gifts are a tax-efficient way to give.
CanadaHelps processes these donations on our behalf. Here's how it works:
Complete the online pledge form. You'll provide details about your securities or mutual funds and receive a Letter of Direction to download.
Send the Letter of Direction to your broker to authorize the transfer. Transfers typically settle within one to two business days.
Receive your tax receipt. Once CanadaHelps sells the shares, you'll receive a confirmation email with your charitable tax receipt, and the proceeds are disbursed to Le Roi Community Foundation.
If you use a Direct Investing platform (RBC Direct Invest, TD Waterhouse, Scotia iTrade, QuestTrade, etc.), your firm may require their own Letter of Authorization. The Letter of Direction CanadaHelps provides will contain the information you need to complete their form.
