Create Your Legacy!

Help insure excellence in health care at St. John’s Episcopal Hospital…today and tomorrow.

Planned or "deferred" gifts present special philanthropic opportunities of mutual benefit to the donor and to St. John’s Episcopal Hospital. They are strategic charitable investments that can provide you with important tax benefits now and in the future.

Planned gifts through your will, life insurance, retirement plans or IRAs, and bequests all serve as a cornerstone of our future by way of establishing a strong foundation from which many generations will benefit.

Please consider the following investments, and we will be happy to help you choose which one best fits your wishes:

Gifts of Appreciated Holdings

These are non-cash gifts such as stocks, bonds and property. They provide charitable deductions and often offer additional tax savings to donors.

Charitable Bequests

Donors who include St. John's in their wills know that their generosity will support healthcare in the Rockaways for years to come. This most fundamental planned gift delivers critically important support to us every year.

Life-Income Gifts

These are gift annuities and charitable remainder trusts, providing donors with an income stream, significant tax savings, and the satisfaction of supplying St. John's with vital, long-term philanthropic resources.

Life Insurance

You can name us as the beneficiary of a policy on your life insurance or contribute an old policy that you no longer need. The tax savings are excellent when this type of contribution is made.
