Donate to Nourish Nova Scotia
Together, we can support young people in Nova Scotia to be well-nourished to live, learn and play.
“I selected Nourish Nova Scotia because of the vital importance for programs like this to provide both nutrition and nutrition educational foundations in our young people.”
–Joy, Donor
Your support will help:
- Work across school and community settings to increase access to nutritious foods, and create welcoming spaces for youth to connect through food.
- Facilitate youth leadership in food programs, events, and advocacy.
- Continue to develop a robust set of tools and resources to support food literacy education.
Other Ways to Give:
Symbolic Giving Collection
Choose from a selection of symbolic gifts, from garden seeds and tools to youth workshops, and help us in our mission to inspire and equip young people in Nova Scotia to learn about food and transform the food systems around them. Shop our collection for yourself or as a thoughtful gift. All donations will receive a charitable tax receipt.

Donate Securities
Donating publicly traded securities and mutual funds to Nourish Nova Scotia allows you to amplify the impact of your gift so that you can make a bigger difference in the lives of children and youth.
By donating securities, you receive a double tax benefit – you eliminate the capital gains tax normally paid when appreciated securities are sold and receive a charitable tax receipt issued for the appreciated value of your securities. A gift of securities, therefore, benefits you more than giving cash, and allows you to make a larger gift. Please consult a tax advisor regarding which type of gift works best for you.
If you have any questions or would like more information about donating securities to Nourish Nova Scotia, please call our office at 902-456-8412.

Nourish Nova Scotia has an endowment fund, administered by the Communities Foundation of Nova Scotia, which supports our work. Charitable bequests in your will, donations of securities, or gifts in larger amounts can be directed to this fund to support our work in perpetuity.
