Inspired Action: Planning your gift to MSF

Making a charitable bequest through your Will is a simple way for you to make a significant impact in the future and help MSF deliver humanitarian relief to people in need.

You can indicate a bequest for a specific amount or percentage of cash, securities or other property to MSF. You can also make your gift from the proceeds remaining once all other legacies and obligations have been paid. If you already have a Will, you can also add a simple codicil specifying your donation.

Charitable gift annuities provide you with a guaranteed income for life and MSF with an immediate contribution for our medical humanitarian relief work.

A charitable gift annuity is an irrevocable gift that allows you to make a significant donation while still receiving safe, pre-determined income payments. Annuity income enjoys special tax treatment, resulting in higher after-tax income. In some cases, the income is paid out entirely tax-free.

Charitable gift annuities are ideal for donors over age 70 who may require guaranteed income for their living costs. Age is also an advantage when choosing to invest in annuities: the older you are, the higher your annual income will be.

A gift of life insurance allows you to make a sizable future gift that will assist our operations in the field. It also enables you to give a substantial amount without necessarily reducing assets included in your Estate, which may be intended for family, friends, and other beneficiaries.

There are a number of ways to give through life insurance, including donating a policy you already own, donating a policy on which premiums are still owing, purchasing a new policy and transferring ownership to MSF, or by simply naming MSF as primary beneficiary, co-beneficiary, or contingent beneficiary of your current policy.

Donating your RRSPs or RRIFs to Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) allows you to maintain financial security while making an impact on our work and the people we help. Your registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) or registered retirement income fund (RRIF) will be used by MSF to respond to health emergencies around the world.

We invite all supporters who have made a planned gift to MSF to let us know about this meaningful commitment. We encourage you to become a member of our Sans Frontières Society, a group that both recognizes those who have made a future provision of support for MSF and promotes philanthropy.

As a member, you will be invited to events in your area and receive information updates, such as our Dispatches newsletter and International Activity Report. Your name will also be listed as a member of the Sans Frontières Society in our Annual Report. You can also choose to remain anonymous at any time by discussing your wishes with a member of our Personal Giving team. The amount of your gift and contact information is strictly confidential and will never be disclosed.

As a member of the Sans Frontières Society, you will be a part of a group committed to making a difference in the lives of many people who suffer because of conflict or human-made or natural disasters.

Become a member today by informing us of your planned gift!
