Planned Giving
Planning for the future and creating the legacy you wish to leave is one of the most effective ways to ensure a lasting impact. Making a gift in your will or living trust, known as a bequest, can guarantee that your legacy endures. Your gift may be a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or the remainder after all other provisions are specified.

For an unrestricted gift that allows Ashland Community Health Foundation to determine how to use the funds based on the most pressing needs, use the following language for your will and/or trust:
"I give to Ashland Community Health Foundation, a nonprofit corporation currently located at 123 Clear Creek Dr., Ste. 101, Ashland, OR 97520, or its successor thereto, _________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property] for its unrestricted charitable use and purpose."
To designate your provision for a particular purpose:
"I give to Ashland Community Health Foundation, a nonprofit corporation currently located at 123 Clear Creek Dr., Ste. 101, Ashland, OR 97520, or its successor thereto, _________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property]. This gift should be used for (state purpose) if and so long as Ashland Community Health Foundation determines that the need exists. If Ashland Community Health Foundation shall determine at the outset or at a later time that the need does not exist, or no longer exists, or for some reason it is not possible (or prudent) to administer my gift as originally intended, then Ashland Community Health Foundation may, in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, direct the use of my bequest for a purpose related as closely as possible to that stated above."
If you have named Ashland Community Health Foundation in your will or trust, please let us know so we can ensure that your gift is used according to your wishes. Notifying us of your plans will enable us to plan for the use of your future gift. However, if you prefer to remain anonymous, we will keep your name and gift in strict confidence.
