Donor FAQ

Common questions, straight answers.

Will I receive a tax receipt?

Yes, on request. As we complete CRA charitable registration, we issue official receipts for all eligible gifts in line with current CRA guidance. If timing matters, ask us directly and we'll confirm receipt status before you give.

Where does my money actually go?

82% to direct programs, 12% to community delivery partners, 6% to foundation operations. Our annual impact report names every region and partner — published each fiscal year and downloadable on our About page.

Can I designate my gift to a specific community?

Yes. You can designate to a program track (First Nations, Women, Youth, Seniors, or Tourism) or to a specific partner cohort if you reach out to us first. Undesignated gifts go where the need is greatest.

Does my employer match donations?

Many do — Microsoft, Anthropic, Telus, RBC, and most large BC employers run matching programs. Tick the box on the donation form and we'll help you submit the match request.

Is SpaceBeacon Foundation a registered charity?

SpaceBeacon Foundation is a registered BC non-profit society operating under Preeminent Technologies Inc. CRA charitable registration is in progress — we'll publicly confirm status as soon as it's granted.

Can I give securities or include the Foundation in my will?

Yes — gifts of securities and planned giving (bequest, RRSP/RRIF, life insurance) are welcomed. Email foundation@spacebeacon.com and we'll walk you through the process with our advisors.
