12. Do you combine gifts made during our lifetime and that received from our estate towards named endowment funds and for recognition purposes?
Yes. Many donors establish named endowment funds during their lifetime, but fund some or all the committed amount through future giving. These endowments are considered gifts in perpetuity, along with those that are fully established during the donor's lifetime. Your family may also choose to continue receiving updates and contribute towards these endowments. The Missing Piece Foundation acknowledges cumulative lifetime and future gifts for purposes of naming, inscription on our Donor Hall of Honour and listing in the annual report and through other forms of recognition.

13. How will gift planning affect the taxes on my estate?
Through careful planning, it is possible to eliminate all taxes owed by your estate. Instead of paying the government, you can choose to make a significant gift to help The Missing Piece Foundation without compromising your family’s financial security.
