Planned Giving

Why include Rapid City Regional Hospital Foundation in your overall financial and estate planning? Strategic charitable investments can provide you with important tax benefits now and in the future. Your planned gifts also give you the satisfaction of supporting improved health care for yourself, your family, and your community.

Bequests

For many donors, a gift through their will is the best way to make a substantial contribution to the hospital. Anyone with assets can make a bequest. If you have included Rapid City Regional Hospital Foundation in your will, please let us know so that we may properly acknowledge you. However, if you wish, your information will be kept in strict confidence.

Charitable Lead Trusts

Donors wanting to transfer wealth to another generation can establish a lead trust. In this instance, the hospital could enjoy a stream of income to help meet immediate needs and, after a period of time, the donor's heirs receive the assets. This method of giving also helps to reduce taxes on the donor's estate.

Charitable Remainder Trust

A donor creates a trust funding it with cash or appreciated property. Income from the trust is paid to beneficiary(ies) specified by the donor. Beneficiary(ies) receive income for life or for a specified number of years, and at the end of the trust term the assets of the trust pass to the Foundation.
