Planned gifts create legacies of giving

George and Cindy Pierce

"After George served several years on the Hutchinson Center’s Planned Giving Advisory Committee and learned about the great mission and research under way, we chose to remember the Center with a bequest. Little did we know that our family would be touched by cancer, and through Cindy’s extraordinary care, we would learn firsthand how important research is and what a remarkable place the ‘Hutch’ is."
Creating a legacy of giving beyond your lifetime requires wisdom, vision and a plan tailored to your unique circumstances. You can choose from a variety of options ranging from naming Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center as a beneficiary of your will to arranging a trust. Regardless of the size of your gift or the type you choose, the greatest benefit of a planned gift to the Hutchinson Center lies in knowing that you are supporting research that will save lives.
