The values
that shape your life can continue to shape the future.
If you believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to experience good mental health, a gift in your will is one of the most powerful ways to make that belief endure. It is a lasting expression of compassion—creating opportunities for people to find support, hope, and healing for generations to come.
Legacy gifts have the power to transform mental health care. They help expand access to life-changing programs, strengthen communities, and build a future where no one faces mental health challenges alone.
By remembering the Canadian Mental Health Association Across Manitoba in your will, you are creating more than a gift—you are creating a legacy. A legacy of hope. A legacy of equity. A legacy that helps build a Canada where mental health is valued, supported, and accessible to all.
The future you envision can begin with the legacy you leave.
How Can I make a Difference
When many Canadians think about mental health care, they think of hospitals and crisis treatment. But mental health begins long before a crisis, and that’s where CMHA Across Manitoba makes a difference.
CMHA Across Manitoba works alongside people and communities to promote mental well-being, provide early support, and strengthen the conditions that help people thrive. Through education, advocacy, and community-based programs, we help address mental health challenges before they become crises. By supporting people earlier, we can reduce the need for hospital care and ensure more people can access help close to home.
We know that mental health can be strengthened, protected, and nurtured. With the right support, many mental health challenges can be prevented or addressed before they become more serious.
Your support of CMHA Across Manitoba helps create lasting change. Together, we can strengthen communities, improve access to mental health support, and influence the policies and systems that shape mental health care across the province.
A gift in your will is an investment in a future where everyone has the opportunity to receive the mental health services they deserve.
What can I give?
A Gift in Your Will
A gift in your will is a simple and meaningful way to leave a lasting legacy. Your estate may also receive tax benefits that can help offset taxes on your final return.
A Gift of Stocks and Bonds
Donating publicly traded securities, such as stocks or bonds, is another way to make a current or future gift. It may also provide valuable tax advantages.
A Gift of Retirement Assets
You can leave a legacy by naming CMHA as a beneficiary of your RRSP or RRIF. This is a simple way to support our work and may offer tax benefits to your estate.
A Gift of Life Insurance
A life insurance policy can be a meaningful way to make a lasting gift. You can name CMHA as a beneficiary or donate a policy you no longer need.
