You can support Community Hospice of Northeast Florida in a variety of ways through:  

Restricted and Unrestricted Gifts - Gifts of any size may be designated for a specific campaign goal chosen by the giver or a gift may be made without restrictions. Unrestricted gifts have the advantage of enabling Community Hospice to allocate the funds where they are most needed.

Named Gifts - You can make a gift in honor or in memory of a loved or to associate your name with a major project, facility or endowment opportunity. Contact Community Hospice Foundation for a list of such opportunities or discuss other naming possibilities. 

Gifts of Cash - Most gifts to Community Hospice will be cash contributions (checks, credit cards, cash), for which donors may receive tax benefits if they itemize deductions. Pledges to  Community Hospice may be paid over a period of up to five years. 

Securities - Many donors may realize substantial tax advantages by transferring gifts of appreciated stock. Capital gains on the amount of appreciation are avoided, and the donor receives a tax deduction for the stock’s full market value. 

Residences and Real Estate - Gifts of residences and real estate can be advantageous ways of making sizeable gifts to Community Hospice. Residences and real estate gifts can allow the donor to realize a tax deduction, avoid capital gains tax and retain lifetime occupancy, if desired. 

Other Property - Gifts of tangible property may result in an immediate tax deduction for the donor, with the amounts of the deduction determined by whether or not the gift is related to the mission of Community Hospice. The gift may also lessen or eliminate the donor’s estate taxes. All gifts-in-kind will be credited to the campaign at the appraised value. Gifts-in-kind include donations of art, equipment, rare books, real estate and similar non-monetary contributions. 

Matching Gifts - Thousands of companies match donations that employees make to institutions like Community Hospice. Check with your company's human resources department to request that they match your gifts.

Planned Gifts and Bequests - Many donors discover that they can make a substantial gift through planned giving. Donors may enjoy full tax benefits for such contributions, enhancing their own financial situation even as they make a lasting contribution to Community Hospice. For the purposes of recognition and naming opportunities, life income gifts such as trusts will be counted at their discounted present value, gifts of life insurance policies for which Community Hospice is the owner and beneficiary will be counted at cash value, gift annuities will be counted at their discounted present value and bequest intentions will be recognized but not counted at a monetary value. Community Hospice Foundation can provide more details about planned giving at your request.
