Planned Giving

Making a difference in the lives of those who follow

By capitalizing on strategies that maximize the tax benefits associated with charitable giving, planned giving provides donors with the opportunity to make a significant gift to the Strathroy Middlesex General Hospital Foundation in a meaningful way, often at a lower cost than you might imagine.

Whether you choose to make a gift in your will, donate securities, purchase a life insurance policy or strip bond, fund a charitable remainder trust that will provide you with a future income, bequeath an RRSP or RRIF, or choose to make your planned gift in another way – planned giving offers a variety of options, some quite simple others more sophisticated, that typically allow you to plan today without affecting your current assets or lifestyle.

By making a planned gift to the Strathroy Middlesex General Hospital Foundation, you can remain secure in the knowledge that your gift, like that of many thoughtful donors before you, will contribute to ensuring continued excellence in research, teaching and patient care for many years to come. Consider creating your lasting legacy today!

Legacy for Life Society: The Legacy Circle has been established to honour those forward thinking individuals who have demonstrated their commitment to ensuring continued excellence in healthcare by making a planned gift to the Strathroy Middlesex General Hospital Foundation.

Legacy for Life Society Recognition Wall: [View Wall] When you make a planned gift to the Strathroy Middlesex General Hospital Foundation, your name will appear on the Legacy Circle Wall – a special tribute board located in the hospital's beautiful new Hall of Honour. Naturally, requests for anonymity will be respected.
