Why You Should Give

"Donating time or money is a way to deepen my connection with something I believe in, in a meaningful and personal way."  -Anonymous

Giving is a highly personal matter and only you can determine the amount of support you wish to contribute. No one can or should make that decision for you. Each of us is different, with varying incomes and widely differing financial responsibilities. We ask that you give to the maximum level of your interest and ability.

Choosing to donate says that you believe so strongly in what happens at Clarke County Hospital that you are willing to support it financially and as part of our community.

Donor Recognition

Each donor is recognized for his or her gift with a thank you and a permanent spot on the Donor Wall for accrued gifts totaling $1,000 or more. 

Naming rights for single gifts of $10,000 and above are available to recognize a donor's outstanding generosity with a room, treatment area, wing, clinic, or other area of the hospital carrying the donor's name.

Planned Giving 

There are as many different ways to support Clarke County Hospital as there are needs to be supported. Potential benefactors of the Clarke County Hospital Foundation will want to consider a number of methods of supporting the Foundation financially. Charitable gift planning can be accomplished in many ways. Types of planned gifts include:

Bequests

Through a will or other form of estate plan, a deferred gift can provide a gift beyond what current means allow.

Beneficiary

Designating the Foundation as a beneficiary of a retirement plan, life insurance policy, an annuity, or a will is a way to allow your gift to extend beyond your lifetime.

Charitable Trust

Various trusts can be used to provide value to you donor and provide a gift to the Foundation.

Property

This can include a gift of securities, insurance policies and real estate. In a rural community, there is the potential to include the Hospital Foundation as the beneficiary of farmland. Also, stocks, bonds and mutual funds can be donated, often with positive tax consequences for your estate.

As a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, gifts to the Clarke County Hospital Foundation are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. Specific tax benefits can be discussed in more detail with your attorney or tax advisor.
