Gift of Insurance
A gift of your life insurance policy is an excellent way to make a gift to us
When the original purpose for a life insurance policy no longer applies – such as educating children or providing financial security for a spouse – your policy can become a powerful and simple way to support our work.
Beneficiary Designation
This gift is as simple as updating your beneficiary designation form with the policy holder. You can designate us as the primary beneficiary for a percentage or specific amount. You can also make us the contingent beneficiary so that we will receive the balance of your policy only if your primary beneficiary doesn’t survive you.
Gift of Existing Policy
You can name us as owner and beneficiary of an existing policy. You may receive a federal income tax charitable deduction and reduce your future estate tax liability. If you continue to pay premiums on the policy, each payment is tax deductible as a charitable gift.
Gift of New Policy
You can take out a new policy and irrevocably name the Northern Hospital Foundation as the owner and the beneficiary of the insurance contract. This method may be particularly attractive for the younger donor. Whether you make one single premium payment for the policy or pay annual premiums, each payment is tax deductible as a charitable gift.
