The LifeBridge Health Glazer Legacy Society recognizes thoughtful benefactors who have made a provision for Sinai Hospital, Northwest Hospital, Carroll Hospital, Levindale, Grace Medical Center, The Family Tree, Center for Hope or BridgingLife in their estate plans. Such gifts carry on more than a 100-year legacy of thoughtful giving that has enhanced our hospitals and provided a foundation for the care and services we provide today.
Countless people continue to be inspired by the vision and dedication of so many philanthropists before them, creating LifeBridge Health’s major centers of excellence and helping us evolve into the largest, most comprehensive and most highly respected provider of health-related services to the people of the northwest Baltimore region. Throughout the history of LifeBridge Health’s affiliates, grateful patients, their families, their physicians, dedicated staff members, friends, and strangers have all made estate plans on their own that include an affiliate as a beneficiary.
You too can make a lasting difference by including a LifeBridge Health facility or program in your estate plans. We recognize planned gift intentions are very personal, but when you inform us of your plans, you ensure that your wishes will be followed.
Informing Us Now About Your Intent
Philanthropy plays a pivotal role in the hospital’s ability to meet patient and family needs as the industry evolves financially and technologically. Legacy gifts are often the ultimate commitment of those who have received lifesaving care at our facilities throughout their lifetimes. The LifeBridge Health Glazer Legacy Society is our way of giving very special friends an opportunity to let us know about their generosity during their lives so we can recognize them appropriately and let them experience the joy of knowing the impact their legacy gift will have on so many lives. Knowing about legacy support is also beneficial so we can be sure your intent is clear and your wishes are followed.
Lowell Glazer, who has given more than a decade of volunteer and financial support (including a bequest), has been named the honorary chair of our Legacy Society.
