A charitable receipt will be issued for your donation. Thank you for making a difference!
ANNOUNCING THE LITERARY ARTS LEGACY FUND
In 2022 we launched the Literary Arts Legacy Fund, with a goal of reaching $1 million in five years.
Established within the Community Foundation of Whistler, the Literary Arts Legacy Fund endowment campaign will enable us to deliver literary arts programming with a reliable annual source of funds.
Every dollar donated qualifies for matching grant funds from the Department of Canadian Heritage, which we apply for at the end of the calendar year. Help us double the funds!
Donations will receive a tax receipt.

PLANNED GIVING
Please consider making a planned gift to The Whistler Writing Society such as:
A BEQUEST IN YOUR WILL
A simple way to make a lasting gift to the community is to include a charitable bequest in your Will. We can establish a personal Fund that becomes your personal legacy of giving.
A GIFT OF SECURITIES
By giving eligible appreciated stocks to The Whistler Writing Society, you can avoid capital gains taxes that would otherwise arise from the sale of the stock. Donors also receive a tax receipt for their donation.
GIFTS OF LIFE INSURANCE
The assignment of ownership of an existing life insurance policy will be accepted by the charity. A tax receipt will be issued for the cash surrender value of the value at the time of donation. The payment of annual premiums is also a gift that generates an official receipt for income tax purposes.
Please contact Rebecca Wood Barrett at rebecca@whistlerwritersfest.com to arrange a planned gift.
