For many of the people whose lives
have been forever touched by
Winthrop-University Hospital, supporting
the Hospital and its mission
through bequests or planned gifts is a
way of demonstrating their deep
appreciation for the high quality, compassionate
care they received here.
These devoted supporters of
Winthrop are recognized by membership
in The Guardian Society, which
was established to recognize
thoughtful friends and benefactors
who have made a commitment to the
future of Winthrop by including the
Hospital in their estate plans.
“Donors who commit to a planned
gift create a legacy of personal philanthropy
and establish themselves as
Guardians of Winthrop-University
Hospital in perpetuity,” said Barry
Cosel-Pieper, Director of Development
at Winthrop.
There are numerous potential
advantages to a bequest or planned
gift. Many grateful friends are able to
make a more significant gift than they
thought possible through their Will or
estate. In addition, some planned gifts
qualify for an immediate tax deduction,
may increase spendable income
or provide significant future tax savings
for the donor’s family.
A bequest is easy to establish and
does not limit access to needed assets
during your lifetime. If you would like
to learn more about the benefits of
gift planning, please contact Mr.
Cosel-Pieper at (516) 663-3398.
