Welcome To The Planned Giving Website For Alexian Brothers Foundation

Thank you for your interest in the Alexian Brothers Foundation. Our hope is to serve you and your family with helpful information. We have an increasing number of friends at Alexian Brothers Health System Foundation who now are benefiting from life income gifts, gift annuities and other plans. Thank you for taking the time to explore the benefits of gift planning.

Benefits For Family and the Alexian Brothers Foundation
There are several types of plans. Many of these have wonderful benefits for the gift donors. Many of these families have enjoyed increased income and generous tax savings. You might start by meeting these friends. Just click on the picture and you can view each story.

Part Gift and Part Sale
Sue and Jim Wilson bought their first home many years ago. As they were landscaping in the yard, painting and fixing up that home, Jim was impressed with the home improvement store. More on Part Gift and Part Sale >>.

Current Gifts
As is the case with many families, there are times each year when Jim and Sharon focus their attention on gift giving. For years, they have created a gift list that includes family members, friends and loved ones. More on Current Gifts >>.

Deferred Gift Annuity
Several years ago Larry and Allison invested $30,000 in what they believed to be an attractive stock. It turned out to be a very wise decision, because the value of the stock increased to $100,000 a few years later. More on Deferred Gift Annuity >>.

Bequests
Joe and Anna have been faithful supporters of the Alexian Brothers Health System Foundation. They believe it is important to support and encourage the Foundation's mission. More on Bequests >>.
