Join the 1979 Legacy Society

The 1979 Legacy Society is a group of loyal supporters who have made a commitment to the mission and work of Ionia Area Hospice by including a charitable bequest to Ionia Area Hospice in their will. At the heart of the hospice philosophy is the belief that we never give up or abandon those we love. While some doctors may say there is nothing left to do, hospice care is based on the belief that there is always something that can be done to comfort those at the end of life.

Charitable Requests

A charitable bequest is easy to add to your will. If you have an attorney or financial advisor, all it takes is a quick phone call or meeting to add the necessary language. You decide if your gift is a specific amount, a percentage of your estate or the residue after you provide for your loved ones.
