Michael Garron Hospital (MGH) experienced a data security incident in October 2023 that led to the exposure of personal information belonging to some of our donors. For further information, see the statement and FAQ page on the MGH website.
Our website, mghf.ca, and payments processed via our website were not affected and remain secure.
If you don’t have a surviving spouse at the time of your death, all the money invested in these funds must be declared as income—and all applicable taxes will come from your estate.
But by making Michael Garron Hospital Foundation a direct or partial beneficiary, you can offset these taxes, make a meaningful gift, and at the same time protect your assets for loved ones.
Simply name Michael Garron Hospital Foundation as a direct or partial beneficiary of your registered plans. You’ll retain ownership of the fund during your lifetime and your estate will receive a tax receipt for the value of the plan—helping offset any other taxes your estate may have to pay.
It’s easy. Just name Michael Garron Hospital Foundation as a direct or partial beneficiary on the plan document. Then, let the institution that holds your retirement account know that you’ve made the change.
