Today, we celebrate the power of giving. đź’›
On International Day of Charity, we recognize the individuals, families, nonprofits, and organizations working every day to make our communities stronger.
Whether you donate to a cause you believe in, volunteer your time, support a local organization, or simply lend a helping hand, every act of generosity can make a difference.
And a friendly tax reminder: if you make charitable contributions, keep your receipts and donation records. Depending on your circumstances and applicable tax rules, qualifying charitable contributions may have tax implications.
From Scarborough’s Tax Affair, thank you to everyone who continues to give back and make a positive impact.
Give with purpose. Give with heart. đź’›
