EVIDENCE REVIEWS
THE OPPORTUNITY TO DONATE

Your gift will help us achieve a world-leading standard in bone and joint health care

As a not-for-profit organization and registered charity, the Alberta Bone and Joint Health Institute actively seeks donated funds to support its work.  You can make a donation to support the Institute’s overall work to improve bone and joint health and health care, or you can support one or more of the Institute’s projects – while gaining valuable tax and financial benefits.

The Institute’s projects include:

  • Providing the expertise needed to improve back and spine health care. Back & Spine
  • Speeding up access to hip and knee replacements and improving the quality and efficiency of care for patients. Hip & Knee Replacement Project
  • A study to determine the effectiveness, safety, cost and cost-utility of hip resurfacing as an alternative to total hip replacement. Hip Resurfacing

Matching Gifts to the Alberta Bone and Joint Health Institute

Your gift will have a positive impact as the Alberta Bone and Joint Health Institute strives to create a world-leading standard of bone and joint care for all Albertans.  But think about the impact your donation would have if it was leveraged to double or triple your original investment.
 
It is possible.

Talk to your employer or board about ways to make the most of your contribution. Many organizations will match donations to Canadian charities by current or retired employees and their spouses. This could mean that your investment can double or more and position you and your company as valued supporters of the Alberta Bone and Joint Health Institute.

Check with your Human Resources department to find out if you work for a matching gift company.

Plan a Gift

With careful planning, today’s philanthropists support their favourite program or project, and gain valuable tax and financial benefits.

Gift planning is a method of charitable giving that is coordinated with your total financial and estate plans.

As a donor to the Alberta Bone and Joint Health Institute, you may wish to consider the benefits of a planned gift of cash, property, shares or registered assets. You may choose to leave a legacy to the Alberta Bone and Joint Health Institute through a bequest in a will, a charitable trust or a gift of life insurance.

Whatever your choice, we want to ensure the structure and terms of your gift reflect the spirit and intent of your donation. We will work closely with you and your advisors to structure a donation that provides the greatest possible tax benefit. Above all, we recognize our responsibility to professionally manage and administer each and every gift according to the wishes of our donors.
