MAKE A GIFT
Every hour of every day, Parrish Medical Center patients benefit from the generosity of
the Foundation's many donors. Tax-deductible contributions from kind supporters like
you help us provide care and compassion to the individuals and families who come to
PMC. We appreciate every gift and treat it with equal care, regardless of size.
There are many ways you can help:
The Pauline Bryan Society (PBS), our annual giving club, represents
individuals, PMC employees, civic clubs and businesses making gifts at a minimum of $100
per year. The society is named in honor of Pauline Bryan who served as the first chairman
of the Parrish Medical Center Board of Directors for almost a quarter century. This
giving circle was first established in 1987 and re-introduced to the community in
2005. Because of Mrs. Bryan's special interest in gardening, we have selected this as the
special theme for the PBS and its four giving levels.
The Circle of Life Society is an elite representation of community
members who have pledged $10,000 or more to Parrish Medical Center and community healthcare
excellence. These pledges are payable at one time or over a period of time, usually
three to four years.
The Legacy Society recognizes future gifts needed to ensure a
continuing source of funds to meet tomorrow's challenge of providing quality healthcare.
Planned giving donors designate the Jess Parrish Medical Foundation in their estate
plans. Donors can use planned giving
during their lifetime or through their estate and can direct the use of funds.
Remembrance and Honor Gifts - Contributions may be made to offer
sympathy at a loss of a special person or gifts may be made to commemorate special
events such as birthdays, anniversaries or the birth of a new child. Honor gifts are
also the perfect way to show appreciation to a hospital staff member, volunteer or
doctor who gave extra special care during the donor's stay or visit.
Good Search.com
In addition to the Foundation's ongoing fundraising efforts, there is now a way you
can raise money for JPMF just by searching the Internet.
A new search engine called GoodSearch.com (powered by Yahoo!) donates 50 percent
of its revenue to the schools and charities its users designate. The other 50 percent
is used to manage the day-to-day activities at GoodSearch.com.
It is estimated that each search will earn approximately one penny for the designated
organization. Thus, a charity with 1,000 supporters searching twice a day would receive
an estimated $7,300 per year.
