Honor Someone Special With a Gift in Their Name
When someone close to us passes away, celebrating the person’s life and reflecting on favorite memories can help us cope. One way to help the person’s legacy live on is to establish a memorial gift in his or her honor.
Your gift may be given to us today to help support our most immediate needs, or you can include a gift in your will or living trust, stating that a specific asset, certain dollar amount, or percentage of your estate will pass to us after your lifetime in honor of your loved one.
If Ashland Community Health Foundation was important to a late loved one, please contact us to discuss ways that you can make a gift in honor of that special person. We’d be happy to work with you to create a gift that properly honors his or her memory.

An Example of How It Works
When John's mother passed away, he knew he wanted to do something that would establish a lasting legacy for her. He remembered that during her lifetime she was always praising Ashland Community Health Foundation for its tireless efforts to better the community.
John decided to make a gift to Ashland Community Health Foundation in his mother's name using appreciated securities. Not only will his mother's legacy live on at Ashland Community Health Foundation thanks to the gift, but John also qualified for a federal income tax charitable deduction and eliminated capital gains tax on the securities.
