SkipTheDepot
Donate your empties to Bissell using SkipTheDepot’s convenient services. They will come to your home or place of work to pick up recyclable bottles, you ask them to donate the money to Bissell, and we then issue a charitable tax receipt. It’s as simple as that! Sign up.
Donate-a-Car
Bissell Centre partners with Donate-A-Car Canada to accept donations of vehicles. Contact Donate-A-Car Canada to arrange a free towing or drop off of your vehicle. Donors will receive a tax receipt issued by Bissell Centre.
Gifts of Securities
A gift of securities is an excellent way to make an impact in our community while also providing you with significant tax savings. By donating publicly traded securities, you eliminate the capital gains tax you would otherwise have to pay. Your charitable tax receipt will reflect the value of the stock transferred as determined at the end of the trading day on the day the stock is received.
To transfer securities to Bissell Centre, please download and submit the Gifts of Securities Transfer Form
