Matching Gifts
Many businesses have programs to match employee gifts of cash either in whole or in part. Please contact your Human Resources Department to learn if your company will match your gift to the Hospice of Dayton® Foundation in support of either Hospice of Dayton® or Hospice of Butler & Warren Counties. Matching gifts are a great way to often double, or sometimes triple, your generous gift.

Planned Gifts
Planned giving is an option for donors at all income levels. Through a planned gift, you can support patient care and Pathways of Hope grief support with a larger gift than you otherwise thought based on your current assets.
With planned giving, you have various giving options. You may be able to receive income for life, earn higher investment yield or reduce your capital gains or estate taxes.
