Support Your Local Conservative Association!
The Guelph Conservative Association plays a crucial role in the campaign of a conservative candidate to represent Guelph in federal elections. We raise money and maintain a fund to assist the candidate’s campaign during elections and to support local Association activities. We receive and locally use 100% of the funds that you donate directly to the Association while we only receive a small portion of the funds sent directly to party headquarters.
Contributions to your GCA receive one of the very best Income Tax credits available. In 2024, every individual may contribute up to a maximum of $1,725. The maximum possible tax credit remains $650.00. Only individuals who are Canadian citizens or permanent residents can make contributions.
Please consider giving a monthly donation to help us turn Guelph blue. Just $35/month equals $420 per year, which qualifies for a $310 tax credit!
Monthly donations can be given in units of $35.00. Choose from 1, 2, 3, or 4 units of $35.00 monthly contributions, which translates to:
- $35/month → $420/year (tax credit: $310, out-of-pocket: $110)
- $70/month → $840/year (tax credit: $555, out-of-pocket: $285)
- $105/month → $1,260/year (tax credit: $650, out-of-pocket: $610)
- $140/month → $1,680/year (tax credit: $650, out-of-pocket: $1,030

(Please note: rules adopted by Parliament in January 2007 do not allow cash donations above $20.00, nor do they allow donations to come from corporations, unions, or unincorporated associations.)
Your tax credit is calculated as follows:
- 75% credit on the first $400 of contributions (maximum $300 tax credit)
- 50% credit on the next $350 of contributions (maximum $475 tax credit on up to $750 of contributions)
- 33 1/3% credit on the next $750 of contributions (maximum $650 tax credit on up to $1,725 of contributions)
The tax credit calculated is applied against Federal taxes owing. Any refund payable should be processed within a short time after you file your tax return.
