Your legacy gift will carry your generous spirit forward and help transform health care for generations. Planning your legacy gift to Surrey Hospitals Foundation can be as simple as talking to your family and instructing your lawyer to add a clause into your Will.
It’s our honour to help generous, thoughtful people learn to align their personal values and interests in the most tax effective way. Many find that legacy giving can make it possible for them to make a larger gift than they ever thought possible while still caring for their family and friends.
This is an easy way to express your personal values and commitment to enhancing health care in our community. You can even make your legacy gift in honour of a cherished family member. Click here for examples of the proper wording for your Will.
RRSP, RRIF and TFSA accounts are a great way to save money and defer tax payments until some day in the future. What some people don’t realize is that unless you have a spouse who will inherit your RRSP or RRIF, almost 50% of your hard-earned savings will go towards paying those future taxes. You can save the taxes by making Surrey Hospitals Foundation the beneficiary of your plans.
If you want to do more to make a difference, giving a gift of your life insurance may be the most effective and convenient way. It’s easy to do and can reduce taxes as well.

Bequeathing land, houses, or commercial property is a powerful way to help. You can donate property now or later through your estate. Either way, it requires careful planning and the help of legal and financial professionals to ensure your gift is managed properly.
A Surrey Hospitals Foundation team member will be happy to speak with you about the different ways you can make this meaningful gift, ensuring you leave an Unstoppable Legacy.
