Payment options

You can set up an automatic withdrawal from your bank account for your sponsorship donations or other gifts. This is the most economical way to make regular donations. Contact us to get your bank account set up in our system. Once it is, it is easy for you to request any additional gifts you’d like to give – a gift of special money, for example. You can just contact us by phone or email and state:

  1. Your name and Sponsor ID
  2. The amount you’d like withdrawn, and,
  3. Where the donation is to go.

We accept MasterCard, Visa, and American Express. If this is the method you already use with us, you can make additional gifts with the same three pieces of information as above.

* Bonus for those who pay with these two methods: You can also pre-authorize additional gifts at specific times throughout the year. For example, you could request a gift of special money (eg. $25) to be automatically debited for your child’s birthday and at Christmas every year. This ‘set-and-forget’ option is handy for the more –shall we say — memory-challenged among us!

Please make all cheques payable to Chalice and specify the purpose of the gift in the memo field. Mail your cheques to Chalice Canada,
101-26 Union Street,
Bedford NS, B4A 2B5.

Recipient: etransfer@chalice.ca
PLEASE NOTE: To receive a charitable tax receipt, be sure to indicate the following in the message field:

  1. Your full name
  2. Mailing address
  3. Phone number
  4. Sponsor ID (if you have one)
  5. A note indicating what the donation is directed toward. (Funds received without direction will go into our general fund.)

Without this information, or if the information is incomplete, Chalice cannot issue a tax receipt.

A bank-to-bank transfer is a digital payment that moves money between two bank accounts. This method can sometimes take a few days and there may be a limit on the amount that can be sent in each transaction. Call Peter G. at 1.800.776.6855 ext. 803 and he will give you the information needed by your bank for this transaction. You can then ask your bank to make a bank-to-bank transfer or electronic fund transfer direct to Chalice. To receive a charitable tax receipt, be sure to indicate the following:

  1. Your full name
  2. Mailing address
  3. Phone number
  4. Sponsor ID (if you have one)
  5. A note indicating what the donation is directed toward

If you own stocks or mutual funds that have grown in value, you will face a tax bill when you sell them.  By donating them directly to Chalice, you can eliminate your tax bill and make a significant gift at the same time. This giving option is attractive if you have appreciated investments and wish to donate from savings rather than cash flow. Click here for more information about this form of giving.

Educating a child and uplifting communities is a beautiful legacy to leave behind. There are multiple ways you can leave a gift to Chalice in your estate plans. For more information on all of your options, click here
