We have an increasing number of friends of MHPF who now are benefiting from life income gifts, gift annuities, and other plans. These gifts provide wonderful benefits, from increased income to generous tax savings for our benefactors. Thank you for taking the time to explore our website and the benefits of gift planning.
The essence of planned giving and charitable estate planning is the creation of an estate plan that expresses your personal values through the integration of philanthropic, family, and financial goals. Gift planning with MHPF can significantly affect your life while you help the most vulnerable in the counties served by the Mercy Health Partners:
- Satisfaction of supporting MHPF's critical goals.
- Special charitable instruments can increase your personal income.
- Income and capital gains taxes can be reduced or eliminated, especially related to appreciated stock and real estate.
- Estate taxes can be reduced or eliminated.
- Real estate can be exchanged for a lifetime of income.
- Donation of retirement plan assets can avoid income and estate taxes.
WHAT IS MERCY HEALTH PARTNERS FOUNDATION?
The Mercy Health Partners Foundation exists to advance the Mercy Health Partners' Mission to extend the healing ministry of Jesus by improving the health of our communities with emphasis on people who are poor and under-servied through partnership with committed servant leaders who join MHPF in giving of their time, talents, and treasures. All contributions to MHPF directly assist Mercy Health Partners' community hospitals. A significant portion of those contributions are used to fund a variety of MHPF's community benefit projects. MHPF plays a vital role in improving the quality of healthcare in the 17 counties served by the Mercy Health Parners. |
