Giving

We believe that gifts make a difference!

St. Joseph's Foundation is a nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization that relies on a wide variety of funding sources to advance and support the needs of St. Joseph's Medical Center and its affiliates.

Fundraising plays a key role at St. Joseph's Behavioral Health Center. It is the generous support of our donors that has led to the development of additional services and programs to provide for the changing health care needs of those we serve.

Giving Opportunities
You Choose

The Foundation staff is available to help you direct your contributions based on your personal interest and wishes.  Unrestricted gifts give St. Joseph's Foundation the greatest flexibility to use funds where they are most needed, but you may designate your gift to an area of your choosing.  We have a wide array of giving opportunities for departments, programs, education, essential medical equipment, and community outreach. 

Gifts can be made in many ways, including by check, money order, credit card or stock transfer.  You can 1) send checks, money orders or credit card information by mail, 2) fax or call in a credit card donation or 3) coordinate a stock transfer.  Click here to access our gift form.

Tax Deductible

Any gift for which you do not receive goods or services is fully tax deductible. A gift of appreciated securities that you have owned for more than a year entitles you to a tax savings, and selling depreciated securities entitles you to claim a capital loss.  Since the tax benefits of different types of gifts can vary, we urge you to contact your financial and legal advisors for specific tax information.
