Other Options
It is getting late in the year for donation of stock, shares, etc. There is some significant tax benefots to do so. These should be planned out with our tax team. You an also setup your own donor advised fund. There are typically donations that one would be considering in the 10,000 plus range.

“I have found that among its other benefits, giving liberates the soul of the giver. ...
“Always give without remembering and always receive without forgetting. ...
“Giving does not only precede receiving; it is the reason for it. ...
“It's easier to take than to give. ...
“No one has ever become poor from giving.
“Don't Just"
Don't just learn, experience.
Don't just read, absorb.
Don't just change, transform.
Don't just relate, advocate.
Don't just promise, prove.
Don't just criticize, encourage.
Don't just think, ponder.
Don't just take, give.
Don't just see, feel.
Don’t just dream, do.
Don't just hear, listen.
Don't just talk, act.
Don't just tell, show.
Don't just exist, live.”

Hi Tim,
I have something to give you! I’ve recently finished a new eBook for our supporters,“12 Days of Christmas - Public Order Emergency Commission Edition”.
You can download your FREE copy here:
https://theccf.ca/12daysxmasdl56
There were some truly shocking revelations made during the factual hearings of the Emergencies Act Inquiry, and we want to make sure these revelations
are never forgotten. While we wait for the Commission to complete the difficult work of drafting the final report, we wanted to offer Canadians a look back at
the twelve most fascinating things we learned during the six weeks of hearings in Ottawa.
It was hard for many Canadians to observe the hours and hours of live hearings, so we hope this book will provide a nice summary for those looking to catch up.
I hope that this book provides you some important insight into some of the most important bits of the hearings that we noticed.
Thank you again for following and supporting our work in 2022. I hope our new work in 2023 defending rights and freedoms of Canadians will continue to earn
your support. We have some big plans already that we hope to share with you soon.
Sincerely,
--
