Planning for the Future – Today!
Toronto General Hospital and Toronto Western Hospital have a legacy of saving lives.
Since 1829, the Hospitals have provided the highest quality of patient care, education and research.
Today, over 800,000 people come through our doors each year and it is our goal to continue providing exceptional care should you, a family member, loved one or friend need it.
You can support the work of the Hospitals, fulfill your charitable goals and achieve the best tax savings possible by making a planned gift. We invite you to leave a life-saving legacy of your own.
Your planned gift will strengthen the long-term financial security of the Hospitals and will ensure they have the resources needed to provide the best health care - today, tomorrow and forever.
What is Planned Giving?
Planned Giving, often described as "leaving a legacy", is simply planning to make a difference with your gift.
Planned gifts are easy to arrange and can produce attractive benefits such as:
- Significant tax savings
- Enhanced control and flexibility in managing your personal finances and estate planning needs
- The peace of mind you achieve by finalizing your plans for a meaningful gift to the Hospitals -- now or in the future
Planned gifts come in many forms and include:
- bequests
- securities
- life insurance
- retirement plans (RRSPs & RRIFs)
- residual interest gifts, and
- gifts of property
Planned gifts may be expendable -- used to sustain current operations or fund important capital projects or they may also be endowed -- held and invested by the Foundation to generate annual gift income forever.
Many friends and supporters have discovered that planned gifts have made a huge difference to the lives of the people who need our care.
