Giving Tuesday: Supporting Moms and Babies in Our Community

This Giving Tuesday, on December 3, Monadnock Community Hospital aims to raise $33,000 to bring a new bedside ultrasound machine to our Birthing Suite. This essential tool will improve care for mothers and babies by allowing us to confirm fetal positions during labor and before c-sections. Every contribution—big or small—will make a meaningful difference for families in our community. Join us in reaching our goal and help make a lasting impact! Donate today.

The Parmelee Society honors individuals who have included the hospital in their will or estate plan.

Members receive a special invitation to our annual Parmelee Society reception with our hospital leaders and Trustees
Parmelee Society members are recognized in our Annual Report and on our giving wall in the main lobby.

Listed below are several ways to make a planned gift. For more information, please contact Laura Gingras, VP of Philanthropy and Community Relations at Laura.Gingras@mchmail.org or 603-924-4666 or LeeAnn Moore, Philanthropy Director at LeeAnn.Moore@mchmail.org or 603-924-1700.

Making a bequest

The most common way to include MCH would be by adding a few simple sentences in your Last Will and Testament. Simply ask your estate planning professional to add the following language to your will:

“I give to Monadnock Community Hospital, Peterborough, NH, ____percentage of my estate (or the sum of $____) for its general uses and purposes.”

Retirement Plan Assets

Name MCH as a beneficiary of your retirement plan:

Most retirement plan assets such as individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and 401(k)s are subject to taxation when passed to heirs. Retirement plan assets are a great option for charitable gifts. Up to 100% of your retirement plan assets can be transferred to MCH free of all taxes. To name MCH as the beneficiary, first consult with your adviser, then instruct the plan administrator of your decision and simply complete a change of beneficiary form

For more information about all estate planning options, gifts of stock, gifts of real estate, and other giving options please contact Laura Gingras or LeeAnn Moore.

Charitable Gift Annuities

The benefits of creating a Charitable Gift Annuity include:

You will receive lifetime payments for you or a loved one
You can take advantage of a charitable tax deduction
Please contact Laura Gingras or LeeAnn Moore for more information

Real Estate

The benefits of making an outright or partial gift of real estate include:

Secure a tax deduction based on the fair market value of the property
There is no capital-gains tax liability on the transfer

Use your IRA Distribution to make a gift

Are you over 70 1/2 and taking a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from your IRA? DO you plan on making any charitable gifts this year?

If so, you can direct all or part of your RMD (up to $100,000) to MCH, thanks to the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015.

Use stocks or mutual funds to make a gift

If you have investments that have appreciated in value, you may want to consider gifting such assets to maximize your charitable gift and tax benefit.

Gifting investments that have appreciated in value allows you to deduct the fair market value of those securities as a charitable gift and you could avoid capital gains tax that would have resulted if you sold the investment. By donating the appreciated investment, you will receive more benefit than selling it and making a cash gift.

Donating stocks and securities is easy to do and can make a huge impact on ensuring access to high quality healthcare close to home. To transfer gifts of appreciated securities to MCH, have your broker contact Anna Highter at RBC Wealth Management, at 603-924-3306 or Anna.highter@rbc.com and Laura Gingras at MCH, at 603-924-4666 or Laura.Gingras@mchmail.org.
