Planning Your Gift / Estate / Bequests

The awareness of the Group Health Centre Trust Fund and its importance to some 60,000 patients at the Group Health Centre (GHC) is indeed increasing within our community and area. More and more individuals are remembering the Trust Fund when making decisions on how they can make a unique acknowledgement in the name of a family member or friend or how to make a lasting impression that will touch many lives and ensure that our unique GHC is here for future generations.


Supporting the GHC through the Trust Fund will indeed help today and in the future. By contributing to the GHC Trust Fund, you can derive satisfaction in knowing that you have not only honoured someone or left a lasting impression about yourself, but that you have been instrumental in making our community GHC a better place to receive health care services. Your gift (donation) is used to fund state-of-the-art medical equipment that delivers excellent health care for the people of Sault Ste. Marie and area. A creative solution for future planning is through a gift (donation) and there are different ways to leave a gift with each of its own benefits. Here is an overview of some options.

IN MEMORY
There's a better way than giving flowers...a "Thank you, you were important to me. I will remember you. I will always be grateful."
One of the hardest things we face in life is expressing our feelings for another. Making a donation in the name of a family member, friend or colleague is a meaningful way to let others know you care. The GHC Trust Fund offers you a way to do this. When someone passes away, it is always a tragedy, but to turn that tragedy into an opportunity to help others is a wonderful gift and special tribute to the person who is no longer with us.

LIFE INSURANCE
Name the GHC Trust Fund as beneficiary of a life insurance policy. Some individuals may even choose a permanent type of life insurance where you need only sustain the policy for a minimum number of years until the policy dividends are equal to the annual premium.

GIFTS OF PROPERTY
Real estate, or other kinds of property may be transferred to the GHC Trust Fund during your lifetime, or by bequest through your Will.

Please remember the GHC Trust Fund in your planning. You will gain satisfaction in knowing that your compassion and caring has contributed to your community GHC and has made a lasting contribution to your children and their children in the future. 

If you would like to discuss your options in confidence, please feel free to contact the GHC Trust Fund at 705.759.5530 (1.800.461.2407 extension 5530), email to: Richter_E@ghc.on.ca or discuss your plans with your lawyer.
