Charitable Gift Planning

Giving back your own way

Charitable gift planning, in concert with your long-term financial and estate planning, offers many benefits. Your gift of any size, pooled with others, helps CPMC meet critical needs and changes lives.

Wills & Living Trusts

Leave a lasting legacy to your community by naming California Pacific Medical Center Foundation as a beneficiary of your will or living trust.

Life-Income Gifts

Increase your retirement income, receive a tax deduction and support vital Medical Center programs with a gift annuity or charitable remainder trust.

Gifts of Real Estate

Avoid capital gains taxes and reduce estate taxes by giving appreciated real estate. You can rid yourself of the hassles of being a landlord by donating rental property or create a new stream of income by placing an unused vacation home or other property in a trust that pays you for life.

Cashless Gifts

Preserve your cash flow and make a significant philanthropic contribution without writing a check: name the Medical Center as a beneficiary of your retirement plan or insurance policy.
