About the Foundation
The Civista Health Foundation is a nonprofit organization that accepts charitable gifts to support Civista Medical Center in its mission to provide the community with a full range of health care services. The Foundation raises funds through individual and corporate donations, memorial and planned gifts, special events and an annual campaign.

GIFTS OF CASH:
Gifts of cash and check are the most popular methods of giving. Such gifts are convenient and tax deductible.

GIFTS OF PROPERTY:
Gifts also can be made with assets such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds that have increased in value. Donors can receive regular tax savings and can avoid capital gains tax on assets given for charitable use.

LEAVING A LEGACY:
A gift in your will or living trust can establish a living legacy. A gift of excess retirement funds, such as pension plans or IRA's also may allow you to give more, while eliminating taxes that would otherwise diminish these assets. Gifts of life insurance that has fulfilled its original purpose also can offer excellent tax benefits. Policies originally purchased to protect a loved one who no longer needs that protection can be an excellent way to make a gift in honor of that person. Gifts that provide an income can be a tax effective way to provide you and/or a designee with regular payments for life.

The Civista Health Foundation gratefully acknowledges donors at all levels for their charitable gifts. For more information, please call the Civista Health Foundation, (301) 609-4132.
