Giving
Life Insurance:
The
two most common methods of participation in the Partners in Caring program are: (1)
Charitable Gift Plan; and (2) Charitable Ownership Plan.
Each has its own merits.
Charitable
Gift Plan: By changing the beneficiary and ownership of an existing life
insurance policy and transferring the policy to St. Anthony’s Hospital
Foundation, you can enjoy an immediate tax deduction for the cash value of the
policy.
Charitable
Ownership Plan: Under a charitable ownership plan, a new policy is purchased
with St. Anthony’s Hospital Foundation listed as beneficiary and
owner. That is a win-win situation
because you are able to leverage your gifts into a very large gift, you receive
a tax deduction for premium payments and St. Anthony’s Hospital
Foundation will receive a wonderful future gift.
Types
of Gifts:
Gifts
of stock, appreciated property, residences, summers homes, collections,
automobiles, and other real property may be the most appropriate gifts depending
on your personal situation
Methods
of Giving:
Payroll
deductions, electronic funds transfer direct from checking account, credit card
gifts – St. Anthony’s Hospital Foundation will provide the most
convenient way for your gift to be accomplished.
Life
Income Gifts:
If
a life income gift is something you would like to consider, the Avera Foundation
staff, located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, (605-322-4752), can design concepts for you to review with your financial planner or
attorney. Though the Avera
Foundation staff will assist in designing a program for you, all funds will stay
in O’Neill and be used by Avera St. Anthony’s Hospital.
There
are several ways you can make a gift to St. Anthony’s Hospital
Foundation. Unrestricted gifts are
the most beneficial because they can be used to meet the needs which are
greatest as determined by the Foundation Board of Directors.
Gifts
can also be made in the form of an endowment in which the principle is never
spent; only the interest is used as determined by the Foundation Board.
The
donor designates restricted gifts for specific purposes.
Areas of designation may include medical education and research, indigent
patient care, scholarships for health care professionals, designated programs
such as Physical Therapy or Cardiac Rehabilitation.
There
is also a restricted endowment. Here
the principle is never spent but the income is used as designated by the donor.
