Your legacy gift could make cancer history

The benefits of planning a gift

Imagine if future generations did not have to fear cancer. A planned gift is your pledge to find new ways to diagnose and treat cancer and to help people in Saskatchewan who need support to fight cancer. While a bequest in a will is the most common planned gift, there are many other ways to give: monthly donations, a transfer of securities or mutual funds, or proceeds from a life insurance policy. Planned gifts are funds we can count on to fund important research and new programs. Your gift could lower the number of cancer deaths for generations to come.

Types of legacy gifts  

Wording for bequests in a will 

Realize substantial tax savings

Save on your personal income tax - your gift can be used to offset up to 75% of your annual income and tax credits can be used over the next 5 years. A gift in your will can save your loved ones significant income tax on your estate.

We use your gift wisely

We keep our administration costs low to maximize the money we spend in Saskatchewan.
