The Legacy Society of Bryn Mawr Hospital | Contributing to a healthy tomorrow
The Legacy Society recognizes and honors those individuals who have included the Bryn Mawr Hospital Foundation in their long-term financial and estate plans through a bequest provision in their will, by establishing a life-income gift, or through another form of deferred gift.

A deferred, planned gift to the Bryn Mawr Hospital Foundation as part of a family’s estate plan provides a meaningful way of extending personal gratitude and appreciation to Bryn Mawr Hospital, and of making a significant legacy gift that may not have been possible at an earlier stage of life. Such gifts offer certain tax benefits and can also provide advantages such as a lifetime income to the donor or others.

The Bryn Mawr Hospital Foundation recently held a special event to thank members of our Legacy Society and 1893 Society for their ongoing, and future, support of the hospital.
