There are a number of reasons why charitable giving with the Miller-Dwan Foundation makes sense. We are interested in what you want to accomplish, and we take both your interests and personal needs into account. We can identify opportunities and develop a plan to make your philanthropic vision a reality. Together, we will work to enhance health care and change people's lives.

Knowledge
We have established an outstanding track record—decades of proven and effective stewardship and an exclusive commitment to meeting health care needs—at Miller-Dwan Medical Center, Polinsky Medical Rehabilitation Center and over 50 other community nonprofits which address health issues you care about. That’s what we are good at, that’s what we will continue to do. We’ll make sure your investment is reaching the right people at the right time. Tap into our expertise to knowledgeably invest in health care issues today and tomorrow.

Creativity
We see opportunities and can work with you to creatively target your giving. We can develop a fund to target a need that will help the people of today and those in the future. We can help you support the causes and institutions important to you. We can tell you about important health issues facing our community so you can decide how, when and what you will give. And since the Miller-Dwan Foundation is a public charity, you receive maximum tax advantages.

Local Focus
We know this region. We have been involved in supporting health care here since 1974. We understand the issues of the past and the present and are ready to address the issues of the future. We know the people, the caregivers and the critical organizations that are working to make a difference in regional health care. We can make sure your support is used to make a difference in the communities and region you love.

Flexibility
If a charitable organization ceases to exist or if the intended purpose of your gift becomes unnecessary, we will ensure that the gift continues to be used for purposes that are consistent with your intentions.

Permanence and Accountability
We are here to fulfill your wishes. An investment in an endowment fund means that your charitable intent will be carried out to future generations; an investment in a designated fund ensures your gift will benefit a specific medical need. Your gift can be used immediately or become a legacy that reaches beyond your lifetime. As a public charity, we are dedicated to serving the public interest. An independent audit is conducted annually and is available upon request.
