Friends Forever Fund
The
Friends Forever Fund has been established with the goal of building an
endowment fund so that Hospice care will be available for generations to
come. This restricted fund will
not be used for annual operational expenses.
Smaller donations to Hospice are very much appreciated but will
continue, as in the past, to be used for general operating expenses.
The Fund will accept current donations of $1,000 or more.
The
Friends Forever Fund also recognizes that people would like to give a
substantial amount to ensure the continuation of Hospice in Lewis County,
but are not in a situation to do so today, and that people may like to give
more at a later time in their life or after they have passed away.
The Fund will accept deferred gifts, such as bequests, in any amount.
While bequests are the simplest and most common way to give a planned
gift, other opportunities include: Life Insurance Beneficiary; Gifts of
Appreciated Securities, Real Estate, or Heirlooms; Pension Plans of IRAs;
Trust and Annuities.
We
encourage you to consult with your tax advisor, attorney, or financial
planner to discuss the best method for your situation.
