Gifting to organizations is a personal choice and preference. Choosing a favorite charity can be difficult and time consuming. In order to help you with your decision, please consider the following questions:
  1. Does the organization provide a direct benefit to my family, friends or neighbors?
  2. Does the organization provide services that if not available in my community I would have to travel to receive?
  3. Is the organization dedicated to improving the well being of the general community?
Now that you have considered these questions, the Foundation is hopeful that you will consider donating to the Elk Regional Health System for the following reasons:
  1. The availability of reliable health care directly impacting you, your family and your neighbors.
  2. Maintaining and implementing state of the art programs and services is a major goal of the Elk Regional Health System.
  3. All the programs and services provided by the Health System meet the mission of the organization; which is, to improve the well being of the residents of the service area communities.

  1. Memorial and Honorarium donations
  2. Annual Appeal contributions
  3. Wills and Bequests
