Build a Legacy - RRSP/RRIF Funds
Gift and Estate Planning
Your retirement funds are amongst the most heavily taxed assets you own. However, when SickKids Foundation is designated as a direct beneficiary of a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) or registered retirement income fund (RRIF), these taxes are offset at the time of death. Your gift will be treated as a charitable donation in the year of death and SickKids Foundation will issue a tax receipt for the full amount being transferred to it.
The gift is simple to make - you name SickKids Foundation as a direct beneficiary on the plan document and advise the institution holding your retirement account of the change.
