Keep Your Legacy Close to Home

You are the reason we can keep outstanding care close to home. Thank you so much for your support!

In Meaford and Town of the Blue Mountains, caring about each other is what we do. With a legacy gift, you can extend this spirit of caring towards family, friends and neighbours who will need us in the coming years.

Your generosity, helps provide the most advanced medical treatment and state-­of-­the-­art patient care; right here, close to home. It’s a priceless gift that will save and improve countless lives.

A legacy gift is one you plan now to benefit hospital patients in the future. The three most common options are a gift in your Will, a gift of retirement funds (RRSPs and RRIFs) or a gift of life insurance.  You might be surprised to learn how little it costs to leave a legacy of compassionate, expert hospital care for family, friends and neighbours in Meaford and Town of the Blue Mountains. Check out our Bequest Infographic and discover how it could work for you.

 

A Gift in Your Will

A gift in your Will enables you to support life-saving diagnosis and care for family, friends and neighbours in the years to come without affecting your current income or standard of living. Tax savings are available for your Estate.  Download more information and sample language for Will gifts.

A Gift of Retirement Funds

Designating the Foundation as beneficiary, alternate or partial beneficiary of your RRSP or RRIF plan is one of the simplest and most private ways to make a legacy gift to the Meaford Hospital Foundation. There are significant tax advantages for your Estate.  Download more information on RRSP/RRIF giving.

A Gift of Life Insurance

A gift of life insurance can be an excellent way to use a policy you may no longer need to make a gift that will make a significant difference for patients. There are tax savings for you during your lifetime – or for your Estate, depending on how your gift is arranged. Learn more about giving with life insurance.
