Planned or deferred gifts

Charitable gifts to The Hope Heart Institute truly allow us to continue

the work of research and education. These gifts whether donation, memorials, tributes, stocks or planned giving, make all the difference

in the fight against heart disease.

Hope Legacy Society

Hope Heart Legacy Society is an honorary organization composed of persons who have made provisions for a planned gift to The Hope. This can be done via a bequest, a life insurance policy, annuity, trust or even an IRA retirement plan beneficiary designation.

The establishment of such a society affords an opportunity to extend The Hope's warm appreciation to individuals who notify us of their thoughtful gift intentions. Having thought through and executed a plan to bring their dreams into reality, members of such a society have been known to inspire and help others to consider and complete their own legacy plans. Other benefits of enrollment include:

• Special informational mailings
• Permanently displayed signage on Boardroom wall plaque
• Invitations to Institute special events
• Recognition in each issue of The Hope Heart Forum
• Thankful recognition in each annual report
