Your Support Makes a Difference

Your gift can help further the important work of the Foundation. There are several ways you can support the Institute's research to educate and continue the training of all doctors, in any specialty, in the most advanced care, integrating orthomolecular, environmental and energy medicine.

Dedicating Your Gift:

If you wish to dedicate your gift in honor or in memory of a friend or loved one, please include a note with your contribution indicating the honoree and the name and address of those you would like us to notify (please print). A letter is sent to the honoree or their family indicating that the gift has been made (the amount is not included.)

By Mail:

To send a check, please make the check payable to:

The International Institute for Integrated Health
Attn: Elizabeth McLaughlin, IHC Foundation
251 Crandon Blvd, Unit 107
Key Biscayne, FL 33149

Please write "Donation - IHC” in the notation section of your check. You will receive a formal gift receipt for your records.

 

Donating Securities:

Giving securities often has advantages for donors over gifts of cash. You can receive a charitable deduction for today's market value of the securities, and you are not liable for capital gains since the assets are donated instead of sold. To find out more about donating stock to the Foundation, you or your financial advisor should contact Elizabeth McLaughlin at (603) 964-2007.

 

Planned Gift Options:

Including the International Institute for Integrated Health & Higher Consciousness in your Will or Trust: You can easily make the Institute part of your estate plans by including special language in your Will or Trust. Leaving a gift to the Foundation through your Will or Living Trust is an easy and impactful way to benefit the Foundation. When making a bequest, you can choose to support your favorite program, or a specific purpose such as scholarships, fellowships, or faculty enrichment. The Foundation is independent, but affiliated with some medical schools, and is the preferred designee for estate gifts, land or buildings.

A bequest to the Foundation in your Will or Living Trust may include the following language. The sample language illustrates how a bequest can be accomplished, and is intended to be used for educational purposes rather than as legal advice. We encourage donors to share this information with your legal counsel. We also recommend that you review your bequest with the Foundation to ensure that your plans are carried out as you wish.

Note: The Foundation's Federal Tax Identification Number is EIN 26-4113263.
