# PLANNED GIVING

Envision your legacy with a planned gift

## Planned Giving

Planned Giving is strategic charitable giving guided by an individual's financial, tax, or estate plan that benefits a meaningful cause today and/or into the future. There are many ways to facilitate a planned gift- each with its own unique benefits.

At Pullman Regional Hospital, we know that caring for patients requires cutting-edge technology, state-of-the-art facilities, and caregivers who treat all patients as if they were family. Philanthropy means the difference between the maintenance of a great hospital and the evolution of an extraordinary one. We invite you to consider how intentional gift planning can support the growth of premier healthcare in our region while leaving a lasting impact you never dreamed possible.

Charitable gifts can generate substantial federal income and estate tax savings. The question is often whether:

- The gift should be completed **during your lifetime** (enabling present income tax savings), or
- The gift should be made at the **end of life—a legacy life **(enabling future estate tax savings).

These options are described in detail in our [Pullman Regional Hospital Foundation Planned Giving booklet, available to download as a pdf.](https://www.pullmanregional.org/hubfs/Planned%20Giving_web.pdf)

Careful estate planning and a well drafted Will can ensure that your assets are entrusted to persons and institutions that are important to you.  The Foundation urges you to work with your attorney or financial advisor when considering a planned gift.
