| There are many ways to make gifts to Illini
Community Health Care Foundation. Careful planning can provide you with
personal and financial advantages. The most convenient ways of giving
include outright gifts of cash, securities, real property and tangible
personal property. In addition planned gifts such as charitable remainder
and lead trusts, bequests, and life estates, allow you and heirs to you
estate to enjoy the lifetime benefits of an intended gift and, at the
same time, leave a legacy to support the work of the Foundation.
Gifts to ICHCF can be unrestricted or designated for a particular purpose.
You may also establish endowed funds, which produce annual income to support
a program or project of special interest, in perpetuity.
We would be very pleased to speak with you, about the role of charitable
giving in your financial planning and how you may best structure a gift
to the Illini Community Health Care Foundation. To discuss your giving
option, you may call the Foundation at 217-285-6080.
Gift of Cash
You can deduct a contribution for income tax purposes only in the year
in which you pay it. A pledge or promissory note is not deductible until
it is paid.
Gift in Honor
All gifts for any purpose may be made to ICHCF in honor of a friend or
loved one. Tribute Giving provides an ideal way to honor those whose kindness
and love have touched our lives. Consider a Gift of Tribute as a very
special way to extend birthday, anniversary and congratulatory greetings.
Gift in Memory
All gifts for any purpose may be made to ICHCF in memory of a friend or
loved one. Memorial gifts provide an ideal way to memorialize those whose
kindness and love have touched our lives.
Gift of Tangible Personal Property

to special IRS rules. Please contact the ICHCF office for more information
concerning this giving option, at 217-285-6080.
Gift of Securities
If you contribute long-term appreciated securities to the Foundation you
get a two-fold income tax benefit: a charitable deduction for the full
present fair market value, and no tax on the appreciation.
Gift of Real Estate
A present or future gift of real estate offers significant income and
estate tax savings. Please contact the ICHCF office for more information
concerning this giving option at 217-285-6080.
Gift of Life Insurance
Over time, many individuals find they do not need all of the insurance
coverage they hold. If this is the case, a gift of life insurance may
be an attractive way to support ICHCF. By naming the Foundation as a beneficiary
and assigning ownership of the policy to ICHCF, you may receive an income
tax charitable deduction. Please contact the ICHCF office for more information
