the community as part of this vital service. Donations are greatly needed for this fund in order to be able to grant requests for individuals in need of last resort funds.
Gifts In Kind
Support for the VON does not always come in the form of cash. Donations of physical assets such as artwork, real estate, equipment, or other tangible property may also assist VON in supporting its mission. These assets may then be used as part of our services or sold and the cash proceeds utilized to support charitable programs. A tax receipt for the fair market value on the date that the gift is received by VON (to be determined by one or more professional appraisers) will be issued. Please note that a gift of professional services does not qualify under The Canadian Income Tax Act for a tax receipt.
Monthly Giving
VON offers a convenient Monthly Giving program, where donors can set up monthly pre-authorized payments to VON Canada for the Metro Vancouver area. You determine the amount you wish to contribute, which can be changed or stopped altogether at any time. To become a member of VON’s Monthly Giving Club, simply visit www.GiveToVON.ca and click on Monthly Giving to complete the Monthly Giving Club Form or contact VON Canada at 1-888-VON-CARE (866-2273).
Major Gifts
Major Gifts are immediate gifts over $1,000 that allow VON to expand services or carry out special projects in our community. They can be in the form of cash, or securities, property, trusts, or gifts-in-kind. Your major gift to VON can be either undesignated or designated to special projects or services. Major gifts can be personal, or take the form of corporate donations or sponsorships.
