The Horizon Society is made up of those who have chosen to create a lasting legacy of generosity and impact through a planned gift to MWPH. Planned giving is a way to support MWPH in the future, through a future gift or bequest. By making a planned gift, you can ensure that your legacy of support for the hospital continues for the long term.There are many ways to make a planned gift, from designating the hospital as a beneficiary of retirement assets or a life insurance policy to including MWPH in a will or trust. Some planned gifts may have significant tax benefits, so talk with your financial advisor about what options are best for you.
No matter how you choose to make a planned gift, the impact is the same: your generous contribution will make it possible for the hospital to continue its longstanding commitment – now more than 100 years strong – to care for children with medically complex conditions and their families, with the goal of maximizing the health and independence of each child we serve.
We couldn’t do it without you. Please consider making a legacy gift to MWPH today.

"My commitment to MWPH began in 2011 with the arrival of my twins when I soon learned that my son needed physical therapy for a neck-related issue. Already overwhelmed with twin motherhood, the thought of physical therapy for my newborn was intimidating. I was quickly referred to MWPH for weekly therapy appointments and I saw first-hand the depth of care the whole team delivers to each patient.
Through the eyes of a patient parent, I’m delighted to chair the Horizon Society to co-create giving strategies with the hospital and donors so MWPH can continue to serve our children now and in the future. I hope others will join me in donating to the hospital and pledging future estate assets to such a worthy cause!"
