The profound pleasure and deep sense of accomplishment that derives from making a difference in the world, a
difference that truly changes lives now and far into the future, is the fundamental reason that people make
gifts to the University of Michigan Health System. You can make a difference in the lives of current and future
patients and their families.
There are other reasons as well: a gift to establish a named endowment or to fund a room or an entire building offers the opportunity to have your name or the name of another family member, friend, teacher or mentor associated in perpetuity with the University of Michigan Blood and Marrow Transplant program. In addition, the strong American culture of philanthropy has influenced the writing of the U.S. tax code over the years in such a way that tax benefits accrue to those who make gifts to charitable institutions. A number of vehicles, such as charitable remainder trusts, charitable gift annuities and lead trusts offer tax benefits and provide income during the lifetime of the benefactor and spouse or others. The UM Blood and Marrow Transplant program is moving ahead swiftly in areas of research and patient services. We invite you to make a difference for current and future patients in this important area of treatment for blood disorders. You may make a gift through the following convenient ways. Each of these methods also allows you to honor or remember a friend or loved one with your gift. Donate online by clicking here.
