The Foundation Team

Contribute to Lake Health Foundation with a one-time gift or pledge a recurring donation.

Donate by mail or online securely through PayPal.

Gifts of stock usually give the donor a tax benefit and ability to give a larger gift. Notify the Foundation office of your intent to contribute stock. Stock gifts can be recorded as a donor’s annual gift or as payment of a pledge.

Your will is one of your most important documents and including Lake Health in your will is a lasting tribute. Consult an attorney for help preparing your will.

You can name Lake Health as a beneficiary of your paid-up policy, or you can buy a new policy and name Lake Health as the owner and beneficiary. Once established, ownership to Lake Health would need to be finalized on a new policy.

Contact the Foundation office if you would like to make a gift of real estate or another tangible asset. Acceptance is by Board approval.

You can pay tribute to a loved one; celebrate an anniversary, birthday, or graduation; or honor a physician with your donation. Send your check, along with the name and address of the person you would like the Foundation to notify. A letter will be sent to tell the honoree – or a survivor of the honoree if the gift is a memorial – of your thoughtful gesture. The amount of the donation is not mentioned.

Other methods of donations include trusts, unitrusts, charitable remainder trusts, etc. These are options that should be discussed with your estate planner, attorney or financial advisor. The Foundation is available, at no cost, to provide information to a donor’s planning team to help execute a donation.
