May
I contribute personal items, furniture, equipment, etc. that
you can sell and place in the scholarship fund?
Generally
not. Although your spirit of generosity is most appreciated.
NCSF can only issue tax receipts for cash, cheques, investments,
etc.

May
I donate items which I think the school could use?
The
Scholarship Foundation (NCSF) is separate from NCCI. It was
created to provide financial awards and assistance to students.
If you think that you have something that would be useful
to the school, you should discuss their purchasing the items
from you; then you might consider donating some or all of
the amount of the purchase price to the Scholarship Foundation.
A tax receipt can then be provided.

May
I direct how my donation may be spent?
You
may not specify that a contribution is for a particular person;
however, you could ask the Foundation to make your donation
part or all of a scholarship for a student from a specific
region of Canada or for a scholarship, bursary or prize.
