How to donate

3. Cash delivered to either the Secretary/Treasurer or any Fire Department officer.

4. We also accept in kind donations of publicly traded securities like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. These may be donated directly to the Thetis Island Volunteer Firefighters Society by contacting the Secretary/Treasurer, for instructions.

Note: The advantage of donating ‘in kind’ securities is that the donor does not have to pay any capital gains tax on the appreciation of the investment. The tax receipt he/she receives is for the full appreciated value of the security on the day it is donated. Contact the Secretary/Treasurer (click on Contact link) for instructions on how to donate a security.

Contributions made out directly to the Thetis Island Fire Department or TIVFD or Thetis Island Improvement District are not tax receiptable. They must be made out to the Thetis Island Volunteer Firefighters Society (TIVFS) to be eligible.
