As the year draws to a close, collectors and enthusiasts have a meaningful opportunity to give back to the numismatic community by supporting the Canadian Association for Numismatic Education (CAFNE).
Donations made before Dec. 31 are eligible for a charitable income tax receipt, offering contributors a chance to benefit during the current tax season while advancing numismatic education in Canada.
CAFNE’s mission is to promote the study and appreciation of coins, currency, medals, tokens and related items, with a focus on Canada’s rich history and culture. Through educational programs, research, and scholarships, CAFNE plays a vital role in fostering public understanding of numismatics. By contributing to CAFNE, donors help support initiatives such as symposiums, public lectures and scholarly research that bring Canada’s numismatic heritage to life.
Recent CAFNE-supported projects include educational events that connect collectors of all levels, from beginners to seasoned experts. These programs spark interest in numismatics among new audiences, preserve Canada’s numismatic legacy, and ensure the hobby thrives for future generations. In addition to supporting education and research, CAFNE provides scholarships and bursaries for students and researchers studying numismatics. Your donation could help a budding scholar uncover new insights about Canadian history through numismatic artifacts.
For collectors, this is an excellent opportunity to make a lasting impact on the hobby while reducing your tax burden. Donations to CAFNE are not just contributions to a cause, they are investments in the growth, knowledge and sustainability of Canada’s numismatic community.
