Gifts in kind are donations other than cash to a charity. Under prescribed conditions in the Income Tax Act, a gift in kind may qualify for an income tax receipt.

Gifts are voluntarily transferred and receive consideration for receipt at fair market value. For example, families often donate wheelchairs to the Foundation for use in the hospital. After an appraisal is done, the family receives a gift in kind tax receipt for this gift.

A gift in kind, however, does not include a Gift of Service.

Contributing services, such as time and effort, are not considered a transfer of property.  Official donation receipts cannot be issued. We are very grateful to the many volunteers who donated their valuable time to assist the KBRH Health Foundation.

Please call us if you have a Gift in Kind or Gift of Service you would like to donate.
