Franklin Square Hospital Center is seeking a minimum of $10 million in gifts to build a modern, seven-story Patient Care Tower. Excellent healthcare lies at the heart of a vibrant community. You can assure a high quality of life for our community through the investment of your gift in Franklin Square Hospital Center. With active support for a new Patient Care Tower at Franklin Square Hospital Center, we can affirm our choice to keep excellent healthcare close to home. Your gift will build a healthy future—for you, your family and your neighbors—for all of us. You can be part of our promise to provide excellent health care to our community.

Here is a brief list of the most common ways to support the Patient Care Tower campaign:

• Cash Gifts
  Cash gifts are the most popular, but there are other creative strategies that may not only address your interest in supporting the Patient Care Tower Campaign, but also may have increased income and tax benefits for you. Cash gifts can be made immediately.
  
• Multi-Year Pledge
  One way of allowing you to make a larger gift is through a multi-year pledge over a three- to five-year period with quarterly, semi-annual or annual payments. Your gift may be matched by your employer, which may mean that you can double or triple your gift to the hospital campaign.
  
• Other Ways of Giving
  Gifts of stock, bonds, tangible personal property, transfers through trusts and appreciated securities are ways of giving that offer special advantages. For complete details on tax benefits that may be obtained from this type of giving, please consult your tax advisor.
  
• Permanent Recognition for Donations
  Donations of $2,500 and $5,000 to support the Patient Care Tower will receive permanent recognition at the Entry Plaza of the tower. $2,500 donations will receive a brick and $5,000 donations will receive a paver. Each is inscribed by the donor. If you are interested in making a donation, please contact Kristi Rasmussen at 443-777-7454. Every gift, no matter the size helps.

All payments will be fully deductible to the extent provided by law each year of the pledge period. You will receive an official receipt for tax purposes. Please consult with the Foundation Office or your tax advisor for specific information about the deductibility of your gift.
