When you support Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital, you become a part of something invaluable and enduring. You also enhance your charitable and financial objectives by choosing among a range of tax-smart ways to make your gift. Please consider the following charitable-giving strategies:
Annual and gifts of assets
The simplest way to support Texas Health Arlington Memorial is through an annual gift or a gift of assets. In addition to cash donations, you can give assets, including stocks, bonds and property (including real estate and tangible personal property such as artwork). This option will not only provide you with charitable deductions, but it may also offer additional tax savings. Many donors support Texas Health Arlington Memorial with gifts year after year.
Endowments
Endowments create permanent support and help to attract and retain vital physicians and staff for the benefit of our community.
Gift planning
From an estate, financial and tax-planning perspective, it is sometimes preferable to consider long-term planned giving as the best way to make a gift. This can be accomplished in various ways, such as charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities and bequests.
With a planned gift you have the additional satisfaction of knowing you are providing for the success of Texas Health Arlington Memorial and better health care for many years to come.
Texas Health Arlington Memorial depends on ongoing gifts from caring friends who share our commitment to world-class, standard-setting health care. Every gift, no matter how great or small, helps improve patient care.
Special recognition
To honor and thank those who generously commit to the work of Texas Health Arlington Memorial with pace-setting gifts, we offer naming opportunities.
Gifts of assets
Cash is the simplest, most direct and most popular type of charitable gift. However, creative gifts of assets such as stocks, bonds and property (real estate and personal property such as artwork) not only provide charitable deductions, but often offer an even more tax-friendly way to support Texas Health Arlington Memorial. Gifts of assets include:
- Cash
- Securities (stocks and bonds)
- Real estate
- Tangible personal property (artwork, collectibles, etc.)
- Retirement plans
- Business interests (partnerships, corporations)
Supporters who give appreciated assets (such as securities or real estate) to Texas Health Arlington Memorial not only receive a charitable deduction on their income taxes but also avoid taxes on the capital gains portion of their donated assets. In essence, a donation of $10,000 of an appreciated asset, such as securities, offers greater tax savings than a donation of $10,000 in cash.
