Why is planning important?

For many people, charitable gift planning is a central component of their overall estate planning process. An important feature of planned giving is that it allows the donor to benefit, as well as the charitable organization. Not to plan is to leave your life's work and legacy to chance.

We can provide you with information about ways charitable giving plans can be incorporated into estate plans to accomplish your overall objectives. A planned gift may enable you to receive a stream of income for life, increase your income, and reduce or eliminate your capital gains and/or estate taxes. 

Planned gifts to Children's Hospital and Health System provide the financial resources to plan for the future. The gifts we receive from our estate donors are invested in Children's Hospital and Health System endowment. Through careful management, the health system maintains the lasting financial resources to plan for the future health care needs of our young patients.

Take time to reflect upon the legacy you wish to leave for future generations. Then speak with Children's Hospital and Health System Foundation and your professional advisor about charitable gifts that might help you put those thoughts into action. In giving, you have the satisfaction of knowing you've made a difference in the lives of others.  

Our goal here at Children's Hospital and Health System Foundation is to make any gift you make to us also the best one for you! For more information, please contact Kelly Sachse at (414) 266-6121.  Or, complete the information request form.
