Estate Planning & Legacy Gifts

Wills and Bequest: Leaving a gift in your will is an easy way to build your legacy and impact the lives of youth. There are multiple types of bequests you can choose to leave to Tims Camps upon your passing:

  • Pecuniary Bequest is a fixed or specific sum of money gifted to Tims Camps in your will.
  • A Residuary legacy is the gift of whatever remains of your estate (the residue) after other bequests are given and all debts, taxes and fees are paid.
  • Contingent bequests allows you to make a gift to Tims Camps on the condition that a certain event may or may not happen (i.e. leave a bequest to Tims Camps in the event that your alternate beneficiaries should pass before you).

Gifts of Securities & Registered Funds

Gifts of Securities: Donating publicly traded stocks, mutual funds or other securities is easy and has significant tax advantages. Capital gains tax is eliminated when you donate publicly traded securities and you’ll also receive a charitable tax receipt for your donation. You have the option of choosing to give now or as part of your estate when you pass. Consult with your financial advisor to determine which investments have a financial and philanthropic impact and make the most sense for you and your financial plan.

Gifts of RRSP/RRIF Funds: Donation of all or a portion of your retirement funds while retaining ownership and use of the fund in your lifetime is a tax-smart option. Work with your financial advisor and bequest the remaining balance of your RRSP/RRIF investments upon your passing to Tim Horton Children’s Foundation Inc. These assets are among the most heavily taxed when transferred to children or next of kin; however, by naming a non-profit as beneficiary, the tax will be offset that would otherwise have been paid by your estate. Consider requesting a change in beneficiary form from your financial planner, naming Tim Horton Children’s Foundation Inc. as beneficiary to make a lasting impact.
