Making a Gift

Gifts can be made for unrestricted use or designated or a specific medical service or program within the Rusk Institute. Unrestricted gifts enable the institution to direct funds to where they can make the greatest impact.

Outright gifts
Outright gifts at any level provide essential support for patient care programs. Annual donors who give $1,000 or more to any program or campaign are recognized through The 1841 Society.

Make a gift to the Rusk Institute by going to the Office of Development web site.

Planned Gifts
Planned gifts are generally made through your will or estate plan. Planned gifts include: Bequests, Charitable Remainder Trusts, Charitable Gift Annuities, and Charitable Lead Trusts. Your planned gift may be made with cash, securities, real property, personal property, life insurance or retirement assets. By naming the NYU Hospitals Center as the ultimate beneficiary of your planned gift, you will be helping to ensure that Tisch Hospital and Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine will continue to provide the finest in healthcare services. To learn more about the Planned Giving Program at NYU Hospitals Center and how you may become a member of the John Revere Society, please go directly to Planned Gifts.

Matching Gifts
Many employers will match the contributions their employees make, enabling your contribution to Rusk to be doubled or even tripled. Please check with your personnel department to learn about about your company’s matching gift policy and to obtain the correct form to submit with your contribution.
