A pledge opportunity allows the donor the flexibility of payment, and permits the donation to be spread over a three-year period. Donors may also choose to make a group gift, as a family, an organization, or friends. These options may allow the donor to take advantage of the naming opportunities that exist at the new VNA Hospice Center. Naming Opportunities A named gift provides a wonderful way in which to honor or memorialize a family member, an entire family, a special friend, or acquaintance. Naming opportunities provide lasting testimony to the support the donor has given the project.
Many individuals choose to support hospice through cash gifts and pledges.
However, there are alternative ways to make gifts that may also be attractive, such as gifts of stock. Some employers will match a gift by one of their employees. Bequests and other planned gifts may be made for an endowment fund for future operations. If you are considering a planned gift, we suggest you discuss this with your financial advisor. Staff members and volunteers are available to speak at church, civic, and social organizations about the Hospice program and plans for the Hospice Center.
