Peace Arch Hospital Foundation Projects: Leave a Gift in My Will

Leave a Gift in My Will

Come full circle with a gift that will have lasting impact for years to come.

Many of our donors support the Foundation with a legacy gift (a gift in their will) to show their appreciation for the care they or a loved one has received. Their gift completes a circle of care for each other that goes on to benefit so many other people in our community. The Weatherby Circle honours and celebrates these extraordinary individuals who have kindly supported Peace Arch Hospital Foundation with a gift in their will. See below for the variety of ways you can leave a legacy gift.

If you are interested in learning more about making a legacy gift, we’d love to assist you in the process. If you have any questions about leaving a legacy gift, OR if you have already made a provision in your will, please let us know by emailing Ilona Scott or by calling our office at 604.535.4520.

When including a gift to Peace Arch Hospital Foundation in your will or other legal document, it is extremely important that you use our correct full legal name and charitable registration information: 

LEGAL NAME: Peace Arch Hospital & Community Health Foundation

ADDRESS: 15521 Russell Ave, White Rock, BC V4B 2R4

CHARITABLE REGISTRATION #: 12731 1348 RR0001

Bequest of Cash or Estate Percentage

An outright bequest of cash or a percentage of your estate gifted to the Foundation can be left to benefit a specific area of the hospital, or for the area of greatest need. The charitable tax receipt can offset up to 100% of net income, and any unused credit can be carried back one year to reduce tax paid the preceding year.
