Planned Giving

One especially meaningful way to help is to remember the Fund in your will.  Through a bequest you can support innovation and necessary change in health care while linking your name for years to come with a cause larger than any single institution.  A bequest may allow you to make a more significant gift than you could otherwise afford in your lifetime and may also reduce your estate taxes.  Moreover, your support will enable the Fund to continue to be a center for ideas, activity, and participation for future generations.

When discussing your estate plans with your lawyer or financial advisor, you may want to consider incorporating the following simple language in your will:

“I give and bequeath to the United Hospital Fund of New York __ percent of my total estate [or $__, or other property].”

Other giving opportunities are available that may provide lifetime income and significant tax advantages for you while benefiting the work of the Fund.  If you would like to speak with someone in the Fund's Development Office, please contact:
