Whether you are a past patient or a loved one received care from the hospital, whether you were a member at The Wellness Institute or you are a compassionate community member, your legacy gift to Seven Oaks General Hospital Foundation (SOGH Foundation) will change lives.
When you leave a gift to SOGH Foundation in your Will or through other legacy giving vehicles, you help prevent chronic disease, improve patient care and outcomes, and make our community better.
“Just because my parents were older doesn’t mean that they weren’t important. Seven Oaks recognizes that and ensured that both of them – unique in their experiences but similar in their needs – knew that they mattered.”
Legacy gifts make a difference for our community. Even the smallest gifts have an impact on patient care at Seven Oaks General Hospital, fund research projects through the Chronic Disease Innovation Centre, and improve the health of our community through Wellness Institute Outreach programs.
Your legacy is your gift to the future. Once you’ve cared for your loved ones and seen to their needs, what else do you want to leave behind? With a legacy gift to SOGH Foundation, you are making a statement that you care about our community, that you believe health is important, and that your generosity lives on.
Your legacy gift is a simple and elegant way to make a powerful impact on the health of our community.
Thank you!
“When health problems arise, it feels like the world is against you. It doesn’t have to be that way. The Cardiac Rehab Program at the Wellness Institute gave us the tools to transform problems into opportunities.”
