Donate
Walking into the doors of the Aphasia Institute, one can literally see the impact their contribution is making. You see it in the responsive eyes of a new member who is searching for the right way to express what they are feeling or thinking. You see it in the vivid painting done by a person with aphasia participating in an art class program. You see it when a person with aphasia sways from side to side or taps their fingers in the music program. You see that people with aphasia come alive again and that donor dollars are at work in the right place.
There are so many ways to help people with aphasia and their families re-join life’s conversations. Whatever way feels right for you – planned giving, in memoriam, or bursary – please donate and help bring someone with aphasia back to their fullest life.
Bursary Program
Our Bursary Program is the helping hand that we all need from time to time. And especially if you are living with daily challenges of aphasia – a once independent person now needing the assistance of others both with life and financial needs.
A bursary gift is a kind-hearted way to lend a hand to someone with aphasia. Contact Gordon Goldschleger at 416-226-3636, ext. 11 or ggoldschleger@aphasia.ca to receive our information package.
Celebrate Someone Program OR Honourary Program
Holidays and occasions are meant to honour those you love. The best way to commemorate an occasion is to make a donation in the name of a loved one. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or holiday, any time is a great time to give. Share your goodwill by clicking here button.
In Memoriam
Paying tribute to loved ones who have passed on through an In Memoriam donation is a truly meaningful way to honour their memory. Contact 416 226-3636 ext. 21 or dataassistant@aphasia.ca for more information on how to make this special and lasting gift.
Planned Giving Program
Leave a lasting legacy by adding a charitable bequest in your will is the most common form of planned giving. There are beneficial ways Canadians can make a monetary gift through:
- Publicly traded stocks and mutual funds
- Life insurance policies
- Gift plus annuities
- Charitable remainder trusts
- Gifts of residual interest and real estate
There are financial benefits to setting up a planned gift including income tax benefits, estate tax savings, and planning benefits. The greatest gift is knowing that your benevolence will live on in the contributions you made to others in your community.
The Aphasia Institute will work with you and your advisors to ensure your gift fits your wishes, and financial, family, and tax needs. Contact Gordon Goldschleger at 416-226-3636, ext. 11 or ggoldschleger@aphasia.ca to receive our information package.
