Legacy gifts, such as bequests, are made through charitable estate planning and can have significant tax advantages for you and your heirs.

There are many additional reasons to consider a legacy gift:

  • Charitable bequests are viewed as one of the most meaningful expressions of gratitude for care received.
  • It allows you to leave a legacy in an area that may be close to your heart.
  • You may be able to make an impact greater than you thought possible.
  • Legacy donors may be eligible for special recognition and amenities.
