All gifts are special to Martha Jefferson. Philanthropy ensures Martha Jefferson's future as a world-class community hospital. You can contribute in a loved one's memory, or direct your gift toward a specific program such as Cancer Care. You may donate cash, securities, or property, or consider a gift through your estate plans or one that provides you with a lifetime income. President Obama signed legislation extending the charitable IRA rollover for 2010 and 2011. This allows individuals 70 1/2 or older to make tax-free gifts of up to $100,000 now to qualified charitable organizations, like Martha Jefferson Hospital, using funds transferred directly from their IRAs. If you act by January 31, 2011, you can make a gift effective for 2010 - plus, you can make a second contribution for 2011 anytime between January 1 and December 31, 2011. Visit our Charitable Gift Planning pages to learn more about different ways you might make a gift to benefit the Hospital and possibly provide a significant tax savings, or even a lifetime income for you and/or your family.
