Cash Gifts
A cash gift is one of the easiest ways to make a charitable contribution to the Marian Foundation. The donation will be directed where there is the greatest need, and you will receive an income tax deduction for the full amount of the gift. Donations of stocks or bonds may be made as well, with the added benefit of avoiding tax on the capital gain.
Wills, Living Trusts and Endowments
Charitable bequests to the Marian Foundation can be made in your will or living trust by specifying a certain dollar amount, a particular asset or a portion of the remainder of your estate once other bequests are paid out. Charitable bequests are deductible from estate taxes. Families may also set up memorial endowments to honor the memory of a loved one to serve a specific need at Marian Medical Center
