U.S. Alumni

It is possible to support your alma mater in Canada and receive tax deductions. An income tax convention between Canada and the United States allows a citizen or resident of the United States to make a charitable gift for tax deduction provided so long as the individual or a family member is or was enrolled.  Family members include spouse, children, grandchildren, parents and siblings.

Numerous gift-planning opportunities exist for the university’s US based alumni.  Please contact the Department of Development at 204.474.9195 or by email planned_giving@umanitoba.ca for more information.  Otherwise, click here to Make a Gift.

If you are an individual with no immediate connection to the university, or a U.S. based corporation or foundation, and you wish to inquire about arranging a gift through the USA Foundation, please contact the legal firm acting on behalf of the foundation in the U.S.A.:
