Legacy Giving

With our Legacy Gift program, your values and generosity can carry forward for generations, creating a lasting impact long after your gift is received — always there for those who need it most. Ontario Shores has supported vulnerable patients for over 100 years through leading research, innovative treatment, and exemplary care, but the need continues to grow.

Leave a gift in your will
Perpetuate your values with a simple and flexible legacy gift that can be updated at any time. Your estate receives a significant tax credit, allowing more to be passed on to your beneficiaries.
Gift of life insurance
Provide future generations with exceptional mental health care by making a meaningful gift at a modest cost today. Transfer policy ownership to access immediate and ongoing tax benefits.


Gift of a beneficiary
Create a lasting legacy by naming Ontario Shores Foundation as the beneficiary of your RRSP, RRIF, life insurance policy, or TFSA. Your estate receives a substantial tax credit while supporting those in need.
Gifts of securities
Donate securities during your lifetime or through your estate to make a powerful impact on mental health care. In many cases, you avoid capital gains tax entirely while receiving a full charitable tax credit.
