Leave a Lasting Legacy

Help ensure there is always a place for families to call home.
When a loved one is facing a medical crisis, families need more than a place to sleep. They need somewhere they can feel safe, supported and cared for, somewhere they can simply be a family.
Since 2011, The Mark Preece Family House has been that place for thousands of families.
A legacy gift can help ensure that the House will continue to be here for families for generations to come.
You may be surprised by how easy it can be to leave a legacy.
A legacy gift doesn’t have to change your plans for your loved ones or your financial security today. There are many ways to include a charity in your estate plans, and you can choose the option that is right for you.
Ways to Leave a Legacy
There are several ways you can support The Mark Preece Family House through your estate plans, including:
  • A gift in your will
    You can name The Mark Preece Family House as a beneficiary in your will through a specific gift, a percentage
    of your estate or the residue of your estate.
  • A gift of life insurance
    You may be able to name The Mark Preece Family House as a beneficiary of a new or existing life insurance policy.
  • A gift of securities
    Donating eligible securities through your estate can be another meaningful way to support our mission.
  • A gift from your retirement plan
    You may be able to name The Mark Preece Family House as a beneficiary of certain registered plans.
These are just some of the possibilities. We encourage you to speak with your lawyer, financial advisor or other qualified professional about the option that best fits your circumstances.
A Legacy of Home
A legacy gift can become part of something much bigger than any one family.
It can help keep the lights on in our 24-room House.
It can help provide a welcoming room for a guest whose loved one is in hospital.
It can help ensure a family has a warm meal after a long day at the hospital.
It can help keep the House available for the next family who needs us.
Your legacy can help make sure that families never have to face a medical crisis alone.
