Ways of Giving to the Fund

A Bequest Through Your Will or RRSP/RRIF is a thoughtful way of supporting the future needs of your health care facility, with a possibility of reducing your estate tax or probate fees.

A Gift Of Life Insurance is a thoughtful and cost effective way to assist your local hospital through The Meaford Hospital Foundation. You can donate a new or existing policy, and depending on how your gift is arranged, you may receive a tax receipt for the insurance premiums you pay.

A Gift Of Securities (stocks, bonds, mutual funds) provide an opportunity to make a significant charitable gift, while enjoying tax advantages.
