Legacy Giving

Planned Giving

Arranging a planned gift is a way to ensure that the excellent patient care for the residents of our community - today, tomorrow and in the future.

While the Almonte General Hospital/Fairview Manor Foundation strongly encourages you to seek professional legal and financial advice when planning your estate, we will do everything we can to assist you in creating a legacy gift.

Bequests

One of the easiest and most powerful ways to invest in the future of health care in your community is through a bequest in your will. A bequest is a gift specified in a will of either a specific amount of money, a percentage of the estate, a particular asset, or the residue of the estate.

To leave a bequest to Almonte General Hospital or Fairview Manor in your will, speak to your lawyer or financial planner to let them know your wishes.

We encourage those who have made bequests to the Hospital or Manor to notify the Foundation. Your bequest will be kept in strict confidence, but will allow us to properly recognize your gift during your lifetime, and ensure that your gift is designated in accordance with your wishes.

Life Insurance

Life insurance is an asset you may not think of donating to a charity until you hear how powerful and simple it can be.

There are many ways to make a gift using life insurance. Give ownership of a new or an existing policy to the AGH/FVM Foundation, or simply name the Foundation as the beneficiary. Each option has difference tax benefits and may make sense at different stages of life. Please consult with an insurance broker or your financial advisor to find out which option is best for you.
