How Your Donated Dollars Help
Through your generous annual gifts, Lake Hospital Foundation is able to help provide superb medical care through advanced technology, cutting edge clinical practices, and compassionate patient care. Below are samplings of where your donations to Lake Hospital Foundation are applied:
Breast Health Program - This program is the only program of its kind in Lake County and the adjacent areas. Our Breast Health Coordinator, working with physicians, helps patients navigate the entire healthcare experience to ease the stress women and their loved ones experience during this time. The services are free of charge to patients and members of the community because of the help of Lake Hospital Foundation.
Cardiac Education - Each year approximately 300 patients receive open heart surgery at LHS through our unique Cleveland Clinic partnership. Community support through Lake Hospital Foundation helps to provide all patients with educational materials that detail their surgery. Also included in their informational materials are articles on Coronary Artery Disease, heart healthy eating, and home activity.
Massage Therapy for Cancer Patients - The Foundation funds massage therapy made available to more than 250 cancer patients a year through our Lake/University Ireland Cancer Center. There is no charge to the patient.

Building for the Future -
Capital Campaign
Lake Hospital Foundation invites you to participate in an historical Capital Campaign that will raise $10 million to support the construction of TriPoint Medical Center, our new hospital, which will be located in Concord Township. The 300,000 square foot state-of-the-art digital hospital will include 119 private patient rooms overlooking a natural setting and a 28-bed emergency department.
TriPoint Medical Center has earned the noble distinction as one of 35 health care facilities nationwide to be selected by The Center for Health Design to participate in its Pebble Project. The Pebble Project is a joint research effort between The Center for Health Design and several healthcare organizations throughout the country who believe there is a correlation between facility design and an improvement in health care. The vision for TriPoint Medical Center has always centered on providing a healing environment; being a part of the Pebble Project will ensure that we achieve our goal.
To learn more about the opportunities to support the Capital Campaign and the new TriPoint Medical Center, please contact the Foundation at (440) 354-1900.

Ways To Contribute
There are a number of ways to support Lake Hospital System in its mission to enhance the health status of the community. Deciding how to give is a personal decision. In some cases a tax adviser or attorney should be consulted. Following are examples of ways to contribute.
Gifts Of Cash — This is the most typical way to contribute and includes donations that are charged to Visa or MasterCard. The Foundation can process cash as a one-time gift or as payment on a pledge.
Gifts Of Stock — Gifts of stock usually afford the donor a tax benefit and can also result in a larger gift. Notify the Foundation office of your intent to contribute stock. Stock gifts can be recorded as a donor’s annual gift or as payment of a pledge.
Name Us In Your Will — Consult your attorney and prepare your will. It is one of your most important documents. Providing for Lake Hospital System in your will is a lasting tribute. Speak with your attorney.
Use Life Insurance As The Gift Vehicle — You can name the hospital as a beneficiary of your policy.
Other Planned Gifts — These include trusts, unitrusts, charitable remainder trusts, etc. These are vehicles that should be discussed with your estate planner, attorney, or financial adviser. The Foundation is available, at no cost, to provide information to a donor’s experts in execution of the vehicle.
Gifts Of Real Estate — Contact the Foundation office if you would like to make a gift of real estate or another tangible asset.
Gifts Given in Tribute — You can pay tribute to a loved one; celebrate an anniversary, birthday, or graduation; or honor your physician with your donation. Send your check, along with the name and address of the person you would like the Foundation to notify. A letter will be sent that tells the honoree (or a survivor of the honoree if the gift is a memorial), of your thoughtful gesture. The amount of the donation is not mentioned.
