Benefiting:
YOU CAN
support the Jackson Hospital Foundation and our
community with a planned gift through your will.
Here are some basic guidelines:
Decide what you want to give.
For example, you can give:
•
A specific bequest of a particular piece of property, such as
a work of art
•
A general bequest, which is a stated sum of money
•
A residuary bequest, leaving the remainder of your
estate to the foundation after all other bequests,
debts and taxes have been paid
Choose how the gift will be used.
You can choose
how the foundation will use the funds, such as for care-
giver education or hospital expansion. Or you can allow
us to use the funds to meet our most pressing needs.
Another option: Establish an endowment, which sets
limits on the principal of the gift. The foundation would
be able to use just a portion of the funds each year.
Meet with your advisors.
An estate attorney can help you
establish the bequest in a will or living trust. And your tax
advisor can tell you whether your gift is entitled to an estate
tax charitable deduction.

HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
The Jackson Hospital Foundation
accepts gifts in a number of forms.
Besides cash, people often donate:
•
Stocks or securities.
These are
popular donations and may offer
tax benefits.
•
Life insurance.
If you no longer
need the policy for your family,
consider making the hospital the
policy’s beneficiary.
•
Savings bonds.
These invest-
ments can become generous
donations to the foundation.
•
Retirement plan assets.
Beneficiaries may face high taxes
on retirement plans, IRAs or
annuities—a good reason to con-
sider donating these items to char-
ity and leaving assets with lower
tax burdens to your loved ones.
•
Real estate or in-kind gifts,
such as works of art, rare
coins or antique furniture.
Proceeds from the sale of these
items can go to support the work
of the foundation.
