Food for Thought

HOLIDAY

Plan for your future like you’d shop for healthy foods.

Give Smart and Save!

When you donate stock, you can avoid the tax on the gain while deducting 100% of the value of the contribution and earn two to three times the tax savings of donating cash. It’s a win-win for you and Legacy. And, thanks to our partnership with DonateStock.com, making your gift is easier than ever before.

Our website at DonateStock.com/LCH enables you to donate stock from your brokerage directly to our account through a secure portal in less than 10 minutes! It’s fast, safe, and easy to do. By giving stock, your support will have even greater impact - without denting your pocketbook. To learn more please visit DonateStock.com/LCH.

When we go shopping, it is best to have a list. When we do, we don’t forget to pick up that needed item, and we are also less likely to buy too much. Lists make sense. Planning pays.

When you think about the important people and charities in your life, have you written a plan to take care of them? If the peace of mind that comes with planning and the possibility of significant tax savings appeal to you, we have done the work for you. We make it easy.

Just like a store, we have shelves of ideas, such as IRA rollovers, beneficiary designations and more. We can even send you our complimentary estate planning kit.

Our guides and ideas come with no cost and there is never any obligation. Contact Tim Martinez at (713) 203-7221 or tjmartinez@legacycommunityhealth.org to help you prepare a beautiful list for life.

Would you like to have a member of Legacy’s staff contact you about leaving Legacy in your estate? If you have already included Legacy in your

plans, please let us know so we may recognize you in our Circle of Caring. Contact Tim Martinez at (713) 203-7221 or tjmartinez@legacycommunityhealth.org for instructions and more information.
