About the Prairie Lily Legacy Circle
Welcome to the Prairie Lily Legacy Circle
The Prairie Lily Legacy Circle is a special community of supporters dedicated to a brighter future for Saskatchewan through estate planning. Named after the prairie lily—our province’s official flower and a symbol of resilience, growth, and hope—the Circle represents a promise to build a fairer, greener, and more prosperous Saskatchewan for generations to come.
Your legacy gift will support the Saskatchewan NDP’s mission, empowering us to fight for public healthcare, social and environmental justice, and strong communities well into the future.
How It Works
Joining the Prairie Lily Legacy Circle means creating a legacy that reflects your values and makes a lasting difference.
- Crafting Your Will: Including the Saskatchewan NDP in your will is a meaningful way to ensure your values and commitment to a better future are carried forward. Legacy gifts can be in the form of cash, securities, real estate, or a portion of your estate.
Types of Legacy Gifts:
- Cash Gifts: Simple and effective, cash gifts are easy to give and process.
- Securities and Shares: Donating shares directly can help you avoid capital gains tax, maximizing your gift.
- Registered Accounts (RRSPs, RRIFs, TFSAs): Designate the Saskatchewan NDP as a beneficiary to make a substantial impact.
- Real Estate: Donating a property can offer significant tax benefits while supporting our work.
- Life Insurance Policies: Name the NDP as a beneficiary, either by transferring ownership of the policy or designating the NDP as the beneficiary. Both options can offer valuable tax benefits.
Tax Benefits of Legacy Giving
Legacy gifts offer substantial tax benefits, reducing your estate’s tax burden and ensuring more of your assets support the causes you care about. Possible advantages include:
- Tax Credits: Your estate can claim donation credits, reducing its tax liability.
- Carry Forward Benefits: Excess tax credits from your gift can be applied to previous tax years, potentially resulting in refunds.
- Capital Gains Exemptions: Donating publicly traded securities directly can eliminate capital gains taxes, allowing more of your gift to support our mission.
Why Your Legacy Matters
The Saskatchewan NDP has a proud history of making a difference—from establishing Medicare under Tommy Douglas to creating Crown Corporations that empower Saskatchewan’s people. Our work has always been about building a better future for all.
By joining the Prairie Lily Legacy Circle, your legacy gift will:
- Empower Future Generations: Ensure that the Saskatchewan NDP has the resources to continue advocating for the values you believe in.
- Provide Long-Term Stability: Help us plan for the future with confidence and maintain our work for years to come.
- Inspire Others: Your generosity will inspire others to leave their own legacies, creating a ripple effect of positive change in Saskatchewan.
