From the Beginning

Since our founding in 1923 by the Village Improvement Association of Doylestown, our patient-first philosophy and team approach have led to our greatest achievements, and continue to guide our investments in facilities, technology, people, programs, and services. What began as an eight-bed maternity and emergency hospital has grown to a nationally recognized health system, providing complex and highly specialized care to thousands of people. Still today, as we approach our centennial, we are paving the way for a healthier future for our community.

Tax-Advantaged Giving Opportunities

IRA Charitable Distribution

You can make a gift directly from your IRA to Doylestown Health without having to recognize the transfer as income. To qualify, you must be at least age 70½ and the transfer must be made by your plan provider directly to Doylestown Health Foundation. The distribution is tax-free and counts toward your required minimum distribution. You can donate any amount from your IRA up to $100,000 annually, all of which will help Doylestown Health prepare for its second century of care.

Gifts of Appreciated Securities

Long-term appreciated securities, such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds can be donated directly to Doylestown Health Foundation. You will receive a charitable tax deduction for the gift’s fair market value if you itemize deductions on your tax return and have owned the securities for at least one year. You will also avoid federal and state tax on the capital gains. Gifts of appreciated securities allow you to make a larger gift to Doylestown Health with assets you bought at a lower cost.

Gifts of Property

Like stock, the fair market value of gifts of appreciated assets such as real estate, artwork, and other well curated collections, can be deducted from your income tax today and reduce your estate taxes in the future.
