HOW WILL YOU BE REMEMBERED?
Planned giving means creating a lasting legacy that ensures Bowmanville Hospital will be here to support the health care needs of Clarington for future generations.
If you have decided to remember the Bowmanville Hospital Foundation in your estate plans, we encourage you to let us know. We appreciate the opportunity to say thank you and recognize your loyalty through the J.W. Alexander Starlight Society. If you wish to remain anonymous, we will respect your wishes.
We appreciate the decision to leave a planned gift is a very personal commitment. It is important for you to discuss your plans with your family and your financial and legal advisors. They will help to ensure your gift fits your personal circumstances and that you maximize any tax advantages.

Ways to plan your gift
In Your Will
Bequests are the most common ways of leaving a legacy. You may outline in your Will the gift of a specific dollar amount, a residual amount or a specific percentage. Learn more about the power of a Will, by visiting our page on WillPower.ca.
Life Insurance
Designating the Bowmanville Hospital Foundation as the beneficiary of your life insurance policy can provide a substantial future gift for a relatively low annual cost. If you do not wish to donate an existing policy, you can purchase a new one on behalf of the Foundation.
