Many leading healthcare, educational and scientific institutions have been founded and supported with planned gifts. When you make a planned gift to Princeton HealthCare System, you make a lasting contribution to the health of our community.

A planned gift to Princeton HealthCare System enables you to:

• Reduce your income taxes
• Avoid or defer the capital-gain tax
• Increase your spendable income
• Receive payments for life
• Contribute to the health of our community.

To say thank you for your planned gifts, we offer special benefits through membership in the 1919 Society.

Choosing the Right Planned Gift for You

Gift planning enables you to find ways to support the health of our community while enjoying financial benefits for yourself and your family. Most planned gifts are payable at death through the donor’s estate, living trust, life insurance policy or individual retirement account. You can also choose from other creative planned gifts that protect your assets or pay you income for life.

You can make any planned gift in memory or honor of a loved one, a physician who cared for you at University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro or any other special person.
