Inspired Action: Planning your gift to MSF
We know it takes time and thought to make important decisions about your charitable contributions. You want your gift to have an impact. A planned gift is considered any outright or deferred gift that is made with forethought and consideration of the benefits to MSF and your own financial implications and philanthropic goals. Making the decision to make a planned gift, either outright or deferred, is a personal one that should not be taken without having discussions with your loved ones and your independent professional advisor(s).
MSF supporters often say that they are inspired by our mandate to assist people in need and by the contribution of Canadian aid workers in the field. We, in turn, take inspiration from the commitment and solidarity of our donors who express their support through these meaningful ways of giving:
• Gifts of publicly-traded securities
It is recommended that you seek independent professional advice from your lawyer or financial advisor when preparing or considering making a planned gift.

Matching Funds for Pakistan Floods Relief
To ensure our independence, MSF’s operations in Pakistan are funded entirely by private donations from donors like you. MSF does not accept any government money for our work in the country, including any matching funds offered through the Canadian government’s Pakistan Floods Relief Fund.
MSF has been in Pakistan for over a decade. The country is among the most dangerous places in the world where MSF works. Over the years, we've negotiated our presence on the basis of independence from all warring parties. For MSF, independence means being able to work wherever necessary, based solely on medical needs. In Pakistan, in order to be able to have access to the population, we must do everything we can to maintain our independence. This includes continuing to not accept institutional funds from, or being associated with, any government in any way, which could affect others' perceptions of our motivations.

Door and Sidewalk Talk
MSF joined forces with a team of Public Outreach representatives to talk about Partners Without Borders, our monthly giving programme.
Our representatives are easily identifiable by their photo ID badge. Please be assured that any personal information provided remains confidential and will be used only for the purpose in which it was obtained. All donation forms, credit card or banking information are forwarded directly to MSF. Year-end income tax receipts for your cumulative donations will be mailed directly from MSF Canada in February.
If you haven't yet had the opportunity to meet one of our representatives in your neighborhood, you can still join the Partners Without Borders programme by signing up online. It's safe, easy and convenient.
