Community members who create a personal legacy in support of healthcare programs and services of Northeast Georgia Health System by remembering The Medical Center Foundation in planning their estates or trusts.

The Legacy Circle Providing Excellent Healthcare
  Our growing community deserves excellence in healthcare, and at Northeast Georgia Medical Center providing excellent care is our highest priority. Lives are saved and medical advances occur daily at Northeast Georgia Medical Center thanks to the team of dedicated professional people who provide medical care to our patients; however, the cost of high quality care increases annually due to the changing needs of our community and the increasing demand for new services and technology.

Financial Support is Needed
  As a provider of healthcare in our community, Northeast Georgia Medical Center desires to provide state-of-the-art diagnostic and life sustaining equipment. A gift to The Medical Center Foundation enables us to improve and expand services and provide state-of-the-art medical technology for our growing community. We all want the best medical treatment available for our family and friends. Charitable gifts have helped Northeast Georgia Medical Center become one of the finest community hospitals in Georgia.

Tax Benefits for Giving
  In addition to improving community healthcare, charitable gifts can provide donors with current income tax benefits and significant reductions in federal and state death taxes. You don’t have to reduce income or change lifestyle to make a gift. Certain options give you the benefit of an income tax deduction while retaining the income from the gift.
  Charitable gifts are not taxed. Why pay unnecessary estate taxes when your bequest can create a permanent, personal legacy to your belief in the importance of high quality healthcare services in northeast Georgia?
