Ways To Give

For a Team Canada athlete to reach the podium, it takes talent, determination, passion and you.

Daily training, year-round coaching, proper nutrition, national and international competitions and state of the art equipment are all essential in propelling our athletes to the top of the podium. When you invest in an athlete’s Olympic journey, you provide key resources needed to propel them over the finish line – and inspire a nation. 

The following are ways that you can support Team Canada. 

Turn Team Canada athletes’ potential into Olympic possibility. Donate today!

Major Gifts, Awards and Foundations

Generous donations – of $10,000 or more – have a powerful impact on Team Canada athletes and enable them to achieve their dreams. Creating an award, donating through your Foundation or making a sizable personal donation will help athletes on their journey to the podium. For more information on these initiatives, please contact Holly Gati at 416-708-5792 or by email at hgati@olympic.ca

Gifts of Securities

When you make a gift of securities to the Canadian Olympic Foundation, you are making an immediate impact on Team Canada, while not having to pay taxes on capital gains. You will also receive a tax receipt for the closing price recorded on the day the securities are received into our account. Securities can include stocks, mutual funds, segregated funds, bonds, flow-through shares and employee stock options. You can give now, or as part of your estate and will planning. 

Legacy & Estates

A legacy gift allows you the satisfaction and joy of knowing that you are contributing to the ongoing success of Team Canada and will not affect your income during your lifetime. In addition, gifts made to charitable organizations will offer significant tax benefits and a bequest to the Foundation will reduce the amount of taxes owed by your estate.

Olympian and Alumni Giving

As Team Canada alumni we welcome you to continue to make a difference in the lives of current and future Olympians. The Olympians Supporting Olympians Bursary was inspired by Canada’s athletes, whose resilience and determination has been a source of hope and pride for all Canadians, but especially Team Canada alumni. Funded by the donations of Team Canada alumni from across the country, the bursary provides financial support for athletes on their paths to the Olympic Games. If you are a Team Canada Olympian and you would like to give back to Team Canada athletes, please contact Elisa Iannarelli, Specialist, Donor Programs at 647-376-8975 or by email at eiannarelli@olympic.ca or donate directly below.
