Donating Land

Talk to us about the options for giving land and possible tax benefits. The KCC can issue a tax receipt for the current appraised market value of donated land, and there may also be other tax benefits. If the land is ecologically sensitive, it may be eligible for further tax breaks through the Canadian Ecological Gifts Program, administered by Environment Canada.
 

We can provide you with information about a new program for U.S. residents who wish to donate land to a conservation organization in Canada and gain U.S. tax advantages.

There are other options for landowners interested in preserving their land.

One option to consider is utilizing a “Split Receipt” approach:  In some cases, the KCC and a landowner may agree on a split receipt arrangement, part sale and part donation. In this case, the landowner sells at a substantially reduced price and receives a receipt for the donation of the remaining value. Such a donation of land allowed KCC to protect a wetland area at Sand Dollar Beach.

If you are interested in talking with us about a possible land donation, please contact us via our email, contact@kccns.org.
