Making Our Future Your Will

Leaving a legacy gift to the West Parry Sound Hospital Foundation is a vote for the future of healthcare in this region. 

Legacy gifts can be made as part of your estate planning, or through a bequest in your will.  Your gift will be invested in perpetuity in the Foundations Forever Fund. Income earned by the Forever Fund is directed annually towards critical new or upgraded equipment.

Please let us know if you have included the WPSHC Foundation in your will or estate planning.  We welcome the opportunity to discuss how you wish to see your gift support the hospital into the future.

Here is a list of sample will clauses to help with any discussions with your lawyer and family. 

Gift of Life Insurance

Considering making a gift through your life insurance is a wonderful way to make a lasting difference.

A gift of life insurance will enable you to make a major gift through a policy you already own, or through a series of premium payments.

There are a number of ways to donate and plan your life insurance gift.

  • Name The West Parry Sound Health Centre Foundation as the direct beneficiary of your policy and, when you pass away, your estate will receive a receipt for the face value of the policy.
  • Purchase a new policy, transfer ownership to The West Parry Sound Health Centre Foundation and, receive a tax receipt for all your payments on the premiums.

Please let us know if you are intending to name the WPSHC Foundation as a beneficiary or owner of your life insurance policy.  We welcome the opportunity to discuss how you wish to see your gift support the hospital into the future.

RRSP & RRIF

Please let us know if you are intending to name the WPSHC Foundation as a beneficiary of your RSP or your RIF.   We welcome the opportunity to discuss how you wish to see your gift support the hospital into the future.

Charitable Remainder Trust

A charitable remainder trust allows the donor to donate assets to the West Parry Sound Health Centre Foundation while receiving earnings payments from the Foundation during his/her lifetime for a set number of years. Upon the donor’s death, the ‘remainder’ of the gift reverts to the West Parry Sound Health Centre Foundation. In Ontario CRTs are governed by specific legal and tax considerations.

Please let us know if you are considering the creation of a Charitable Remainder Trust.  We welcome the opportunity to discuss how you wish to see your gift support the hospital into the future.



Charitable Residual Trust

The donor donates property to the West Parry Sound Health Centre Foundation and continues to use it during his/her lifetime. For example, the owner of a cottage donates the land and buildings to the Foundation and continues to live in or use the property until death.

CAF America is a global grantmaking organization assisting corporations, foundations, and individuals. We streamline the grantmaking process to eliminate risk and administrative burden.

US donors cannot give directly to foreign charitable organizations and obtain a tax deduction. As a US public charity, CAF America is able to accept funds from US donors who can then recommend that CAF America use those funds to support foreign charitable organizations or projects. We enable donors to support the causes they care about by assisting them in making strategic, effective, and tax-advantaged grants internationally and domestically.

As a US 501(c)(3) public charity, gifts to CAF America are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. Since US donors are not able to make tax deductible gifts directly to foreign organizations, many use CAF America to fulfill their global giving objectives while still obtaining a tax advantage.

Donors give to UK Fund for Charities because they know that we have expertise in international giving. They value our technical evaluation of non-UK charitable organisations and our knowledge of the UK legal system and charity laws.

You can make a donation to the UK Fund for Charities and recommend one of its International Programme members to receive a grant. Or, you can tell us about a nonprofit organisation you would like to support and the UKFC will verify that they are a suitable organisation to receive grants.

UK taxpayers, regardless of residency or nationality, can make donations to the UK Fund under Gift Aid. Higher rate taxpayers should include all Gift Aided donations on their Self Assessment tax return in order to receive any tax relief due or they can donate this tax relief too.
