The dedicated support of our donors has helped make NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital a leading healthcare provider in our community. EVERY GIFT, no matter the size, makes a difference in the lives of our patients and helps us fulfill our mission: to provide excellent healthcare services in a compassionate and humane manner to the people who live and work in Brooklyn and its surrounding areas. WAYS TO SUPPORT NYP BROOKLYN METHODIST UNRESTRICTED GIFTS give the Hospital the greatest flexibility to support our programs and services with the most urgent needs. Donors who contribute $1,500 or more in unrestricted, nonevent gifts in a given year are recognized as members of the GEORGE INGRAHAM SENEY SOCIETY. Donors who make nonevent gifts of any amount for at least three consecutive years are recognized as members of the 1881 Society, commemorating the year of our founding. RESTRICTED GIFTS can be made to a wide range of specialty services or programs designated by the Hospital as areas for support, consistent with a donor's personal interests. Such areas of support include the Alzheimer's Program, Child Life Services, Lung Cancer Screening Program, among many others. THE HEALERS' HALL OF FAME is our grateful patient program. Donors may nominate a doctor, nurse, staff member, and/or department for induction into our annual list. GIFTS IN HONOR OR MEMORY of an individual can be made in any amount and for any purpose. All gifts can be acknowledged to the honoree or the family. We invite you to learn about ways to contribute by visiting www.nyp.org/brooklyn/give, calling the Department of Development at 718.501.6880 or emailing BMHdevelopment@nyp.org. Donations can be made online at donate.nym.org. STEADFAST PHILANTHROPY NAMING OPPORTUNITIES are available to recognize a donor's contribution to the Hospital. Gifts may be made in honor or in memory of an individual to name facilities, medical programs or funds that support medical staff and research. BEQUESTS AND PLANNED GIFTS, made through a will, insurance policy or trust, leave a meaningful legacy to our Hospital. Donors can leave a specific dollar amount or a percentage of their estate. Through a planned gift, donors make a gift without depleting current assets and can reduce federal estate taxes. WINTER 2018 W W W.N Y P.O RG / BRO OKLY N 30 G I V I N G
