Special Ways to Give
Please explore the ideas below to learn about different options for personalizing your donation, or for providing long-term support.
In Their Name
Contributions in memory of, or in honor of, a special person are a very personal way to donate. Family members often suggest that memorial gifts be made to Yolo Hospice in lieu of flowers, to remember loved ones. If you know someone who is passionate about Yolo Hospice or hospice care, you can also donate in their name as a gift for birthdays, anniversaries, or other special days.
To pay tribute with your donation, please attach a note listing the honoree’s name, or include it in the notes section when you donate online. We acknowledge gifts received in the name of loved ones, as long as we receive contact information for the acknowledgement.
Monthly Gifts
Monthly donations help give Yolo Hospice a solid base of dependable income, which enables us to plan our activities for the year. Convenient monthly giving also allows you to make your donation in easy-to-manage amounts. Yolo Hospice will send you one tax receipt for the total amount of your donation for the year. Call us at (800) 491-7711 or (530) 758-5566 to set up your monthly gift.
Legacy Gifts
Legacy gifts are a unique giving opportunity for donors who include Yolo Hospice in their estate plans—whether by will, trust, insurance, or life income arrangement. Planned gifts can fulfill immediate needs or be given as endowments to ensure Yolo Hospice services continue to meet the needs of future generations. This is an opportunity for our donors to create their own legacies.
Payroll Giving
Yolo Hospice is a proud Certified Partner Agency of the United Way. If your employer or community participates with United Way or another payroll giving campaign, you can direct your contribution by designating it to Yolo Hospice.
Hold an Event
Every year, groups and members of the community support Yolo Hospice by organizing special events like golf or card tournaments, pasta dinners, fashion shows, or Oktoberfest celebrations. Individuals, businesses, civic groups, and faith-based organizations contribute sponsorships to help ensure the success of these special events. To consult with hospice staff about these events, sponsorship opportunities, and their tax-deductible value, please call (800) 491-7711.
