The Horizon Club recognizes the people who believe in quality healthcare today, and in the future. To become a member you only need to inform the Foundation that you have made, or intend to make, a planned gift to Community Medical Center. These gifts may be made through bequests in your will, charitable gift annuities, charitable trusts, life insurance, life estates or to the pooled income fund.
In addition to benefiting the Medical Center, these gifts often reduce tax liability and/or increase income for the donor. The amount of a bequest or trust is entirely your choice and will be kept strictly confidential.
Members of the Horizon Club are invited to special programs, which offer an inside look at Community Medical Center and the Saint Barnabas Health Care System. They also receive special updates on Community Medical Center and healthcare in general. Horizon Club members’ names are listed, with their permission, in the Annual Gift Report and on the Horizon Club plaque located in the Medical Center. The Foundation staff can be a resource for information regarding all aspects of charitable gift planning. Your gift can help provide new technologies, enhance our ability to provide patient care, and help touch literally thousands of men, women and children who partake in the many programs and services both in the hospital and in the community. We would be delighted to meet with anyone and answer any questions you may have about our programs or the Foundation.
