Leave a Legacy Through Planned Giving
By remembering St. Thomas Hospice in your estate plans, you can leave a legacy that extends beyond you. You have multiple options for making a planned gift that will leave a lasting legacy, including a bequest in a will or trust, beneficiary designation of a retirement plan, individual retirement account (IRA), life insurance policy or other gift vehicles.
You can leave a legacy gift to our foundation through a simple bequest in your will or by naming our foundation as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy, qualified retirement plan or IRA. You can also arrange a tax-wise gift to provide lifetime income for your loved ones and yourself or pass assets to heirs at reduced tax.
We appreciate your generosity and consideration. For more information, please reach out to Meghan Moreno at Meghan.Moreno@AdventHealth.com.

- Tree of Remembrance

A tradition that began in 1993, the annual Tree of Remembrance and tribute boards — filled with the names of loved ones sent in by families and individuals like you — are displayed on the corner of Lincoln and First streets in Hinsdale in front of BMO-Harris bank from Thanksgiving through New Year’s.
When the tree is lit, community members can take a minute to pause during the busy holiday season to reflect and remember friends, family and other loved ones.
Your thoughtful contribution of any amount helps ensure our friends and neighbors have a strong, compassionate bereavement program to turn to in times of grief. Click here to make your gift today.
- Youth Bereavement Camps
-
Children grieve in unique ways and have special needs in coping with the loss of someone they love. Bereavement camps help meet those needs.
Our five-day Tommy's Kids Summer Camp allows kids to bond with peers who understand each other. Our campers gain coping skills and benefit from the compassionate guidance of trained bereavement volunteers.
