Care for Generations

Why Care for Generations?

Care for Generations Legacy Giving Challenge offers a meaningful way to make a lasting impact for those considering a legacy gift. By including Sharp HospiceCare in your estate plans you help ensure compassionate hospice care remains available to patients and families throughout San Diego.

Your generosity will make an immediate impact. Because of an anonymous donor, your confirmed legacy gift will unlock $5,000 today to support our permanent endowment.

Your commitment to Sharp HospiceCare ensures specialized programs, skilled staff and coordinated care that eases pain and guides families through grief.

To participate in the challenge, establish your legacy today and your gift will unlock additional funds for generations to come.

If you have already included Sharp HospiceCare in your estate plans, please let us know so your commitment may be recognized as part of this special matching opportunity.

If you are already a legacy giving donor, you can participate by confidentially sharing details about your existing legacy gift or increasing your future commitment.

2. Tell us about it! Document your philanthropic commitment to Sharp HospiceCare by completing a simple, confidential and non-legally binding Legacy Confirmation Form.
