The BCCA Charitable Trust
The Bearded Collie Club of America Charitable Trust is a 501(c)3 organization that provides a means of collecting tax-deductible donations in support of the educational, health and rescue needs of Bearded Collies.
The Trust is governed by a Board of Trustees comprised of BCCA members or members of affiliate clubs. Membership is not required to participate in the Trust’s activities. Activities include the annual matching funds campaign and the Canine Cancer Challenge, which matches donation amounts and uses them to fund canine cancer research.
Tax-deductible donations of any amount are welcome and will be acknowledged in writing. The Charitable Trust accepts dedicated contributions for health and rescue and undesignated funds for other purposes such as scholarships, seminars, publications and educational conferences. Donations may be made in memory of, or in honor of, a particular individual or dog. You can download the Donation Form here.
