So Many Ways to Give

We are very grateful to the donors and volunteers who have joined us in our mission of making world-class healthcare available to everyone, everywhere. It is through generous donations we are able to enhance our facilities, expand research opportunities, host community programs, provide team member assistance and deliver compassionate patient-centered care utilizing the best medical technology available.

 

Planned Giving

Planned giving is an excellent way to meet your family’s financial planning goals while supporting world-class healthcare through a will bequest, trust, charitable gift annuity or life insurance policy. Not only does your gift help us fund life-saving programs and services, in many cases, but it can also provide you with useful income and tax benefits.

Use the Planned Giving Calculators to explore the benefits of planned giving.

If you're looking for more information about planned giving, Wellstar Foundation's experienced staff is here to assist. We can help you learn more about the planned giving process and find the best giving option to meet your needs and satisfy your personal goals. Contact Lisa Mello at [email protected].

In Honor Or In Memory

Show your admiration, respect or love for someone who has made a difference in your life with a tribute or memorial gift to Wellstar Foundation. Honor and remember a loved one with a gift that helps fund life-saving programs and services in the name of someone you cherish. Make a tax-deductible donation honoring Wellstar team members whose care and dedication provide healing and comfort to Wellstar patients. Gifts of remembrance are a meaningful way to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, close friendships or simply to make a positive difference in our community. We will send a card to the person or someone close to them acknowledging your generosity on their behalf.

• C Corporations: The lessor of the amount of contribution or 75% of their GA income tax liability
• Pass-through entities: 100% of the amount contributed up to a limit of $10,000, so long as you would have paid GA income tax in the amount on your share of taxable income from the pass-through

This is a great opportunity for you and Wellstar Sylvan Grove that is only available for a limited time. Please make sure to select Wellstar Sylvan Grove Hospital as your hospital organization for your donation.
