Strategic Philanthropy
A leadership gift to the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society is a powerful way to support animal well-being across the province. Whether it’s a one-time or recurring donation, or a gift of real estate, securities, or equipment, your generosity can make a lasting difference.
“Philanthropy provides you with joy. It’s actually science! For that reason, I feel so fortunate to be in my role right now at the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society. As a lifelong animal lover, I take special pride in the work I do, connecting my passion for animals with the impactful work that changes animals’ lives.
Never has there been a time when so many exciting things have been happening for animals in Ontario, and none of it would be possible without you, our friends in the community who make everything we do possible. By making a Leadership Gift, you are moving the dial within our industry, becoming a problem solver, and joining our mission.
I would like to learn more about what matters to you, why you want to make an impact in the lives of animals, and how we can work together to make that happen. I love meeting animal lovers and helping them channel that passion into meaningful support.”

Gift of Securities
Donating securities is one of the most advantageous ways to support animals in need. It is eligible for a charitable tax receipt, due to the elimination of capital gains tax owed on donations of appreciated publicly traded securities to registered charities.
Legacy Giving
A gift in your will to the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society is a meaningful way to continue your love for animals, long into the future. Your legacy will help rescue, protect, and care for pets in need, even after you’re gone.
