Benefits to you

Your monthly gift to the Alzheimer Society of B.C. means that:
  • You make one decision - and your gift keeps working month after month to support a cause you believe in.
  • Giving is easier and more convenient. Once you've signed up, your donation becomes automatic until you advise us otherwise - no cheques to write, no stamps to lick, and no chance of your donation getting lost in the mail.
  • Giving smaller monthly gifts of $10, $15, $20 or any amount you choose, is a simple and affordable way to support the Society's work all year round.
  • Your gift is tax deductible and you will receive one cumulative tax receipt after the end of the calendar year.
  • Your monthly gift gives you the satisfaction of knowing that you are making an ongoing and significant difference to the lives of thousands of people in British Columbia affected by Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.

Benefits to the Alzheimer Society of B.C.

When you join Partners In Giving we also benefit. Your monthly gift:
  • Ensures sustainability: A regular and predictable source of income that we can depend on every month helps to ensure that the Alzheimer Society of B.C. has the resources we need to support our vision.
  • Helps us plan: A dependable source of income gives the Society a greater ability to get involved in long-term projects. Click here for more information about where your money goes.
  • Saves money: Monthly donations mean less paperwork and administration work, resulting in this being one of the most cost effective and environmentally friendly methods of giving. Please Note: A monthly withdrawal from your bank account is slightly more cost effective to the Society than a monthly credit card donation, however, both forms of monthly giving are available.
