Gifts-in-Kind

Donations to Columbia are not limited to cash gifts only. Perhaps you have an item or product that would be helpful in fulfilling the mission of the College. Gifts-in-Kind include things like vehicles, furniture, books, computers, produce … the list goes on. If you have something that you would like to donate as a Gift-in-Kind the Development Department will be happy to discuss this with you.

* According to Revenue Canada, Gift-in-Kind donations must be formally assessed and appraised by a qualified individual and are eligible for a tax receipt equivalent to the fair market value of the item.

Things We Need ...

We often find ourselves needing items that will help us inserving our students better, but are often constrained by budgets in being able to purchase them. A gift in kind is charitable giving in which goods and services themselves are given. We are allowed to issue tax receipts for new and used goods which fall within Revenue Canada guidelines.

Call Myra Lightheart at (604 853 3567 ext 344) or email (development@columbiabc.edu) with questions or with items to donate.
