Information for Giving

Since 1985, the AdventHealth Gordon Foundation has supported the hospital’s mission of care and compassion. Raising money for new equipment that will help us bring faster healing to the people we care for, funding building expansions that will make the people in our hospital more comfortable, and bringing health care to more members of the community than ever before — these are just some of the things our Foundation has accomplished.

We’ve also established the Nursing/Allied Health Scholarship Endowment Fund for students interested in the health-care field. We’re paving the way for future generations of nurses and physicians right here in our community. And with your help, we can do even more. Support our Foundation so we can keep providing the highest standard of care for those we serve.

Giving is a personal thing. That’s why we offer many ways to donate to our AdventHealth Gordon. Pick any one of the following planned gifts or donations, or combine them for an even greater impact.

Charitable Bequest

Create a legacy. Leave us a bequest in your will — as a fixed amount, a percentage, or a remainder of your estate. You’ll help us and reduce your family’s estate taxes at the same time.

Charitable Gift Annuity

Maximize the effect of your gift with a charitable gift annuity. You’ll get income-tax advantages and we'll get fixed payments back.

Charitable Remainder Trust

Establish a trust and watch your gift grow each year. You and your family can receive income-tax and capital-gains benefits, and we’ll receive funding for new projects to help our patients and staff.

Donation Form

Make a direct donation and we’ll start putting your gift to good use immediately. Fill out our Online Donation Form. Do it in honor of a loved one or choose to remain anonymous. It’s up to you.

IRA Rollover

Call your IRA administrator and transfer funds to our hospital rather than taking your required minimum distribution.

Life Insurance

Name us as a beneficiary of your life-insurance policy and keep giving for years to come.

Property

Build something lasting. Transfer residential, commercial, forest, or farm property to us. You’ll receive income-tax benefits throughout your life, and we’ll receive the benefits of your generosity far into the future.

Transfer of Stock

Transfer an appreciated asset like stock and get an income-tax deduction.

Sometimes the best gift is time. Spend some of yours helping our staff and medical team give hope and healing to patients and their families. As a hospital volunteer, you’ll help us raise money for special projects like The Baby Place and the Emergency Center. You’ll help our patients feel comfortable, and you’ll support our staff in their mission of healing. Our dedicated volunteer force is what keeps AdventHealth Gordon running.

Have a blast. Make a difference. Every year, we host a number of fundraiser events to unite the community and raise funds for our hospital’s upcoming projects. Come learn about the effects of your generosity, connect with members of the AdventHealth Gordon team, and have fun doing it.

Our Foundation hosts two major fundraising events each year: the AdventHealth Gordon Foundation Golf Classic and the Race Around the Rec 5K and Fun Run. Each year, the community rallies around these two events as an opportunity to build comradery, celebrate the community’s successes and most importantly, raise funds that will maximize community impact.
