We’re excited to announce a special matching gift opportunity, thanks to the generosity of 2023 Speirs Medalists, Roula and Alan Rossy '79! Contributions will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $50,000. This is a wonderful chance to double your impact and support Selwyn House School. Every gift counts! Together, we can make a difference!
1908 Legacy Circle
Portals to Knowledge – Pathways to Truth
Did you know that you could leave a legacy to Selwyn House School through as simple an action as creating a gift in your will? A number of visionary Old Boys have taken this significant decision. Through their legacy gifts they aim to create new leaders and empower the next generation of boys to succeed in learning and in life.
Join the circle
For more information on these kinds of gifts, or to let us know if you have already made a legacy gift to Selwyn House School, please contact Sharon Cozens, Director of Advancement at 514-931-9481 x 2269 or email her at cozenss@selwyn.ca. Our goal is to have 70 legacy donors to celebrate the next 70 years of the Old Boys’ Association. Download information for bequest wording here.
A way to give more
Making the school the beneficiary of a gift in your will is a simple means of making a larger gift than would be possible during your lifetime. It has no impact on your current assets, cash flow or your lifestyle. It can also reduce, or even eliminate, the tax burden on your beneficiaries, since your estate will receive a tax receipt for your gift. There are other ways to leave a legacy such as making us beneficiary of a life insurance policy or, in most provinces, the beneficiary of all, or a percentage of, your RRSP/RRIF or TFSA.
