Planned giving

Your legacy, their future

There are many ways to help more local families build and buy a safe, affordable home. Legacy giving and gifts of securities are two options that can make a big impact today and for years to come. Whether you choose to leave a gift in your will or donate securities, your support helps create stronger communities across Southern Alberta.

Leave a legacy

When you include Habitat for Humanity Southern Alberta in your will or estate plans, you help local families build better futures for generations to come.

A legacy gift is a meaningful way to share your values and make a lasting difference.

  • Leave a gift in your will
  • Name Habitat as a beneficiary of your RRSP, RRIF, or life insurance policy
  • Choose another planned gift that’s right for you

Give securities

Donating publicly traded securities—like stocks, bonds, or mutual funds—is a simple and tax-effective way to support Habitat’s work.

When you give securities directly:

  • You don’t pay tax on the capital gains
  • You get a charitable tax receipt for the full value of your gift

This means you can make an even bigger impact at no extra cost.
