I give to the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health, a California not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation (Tax ID:# 77-0440090), the following described property: (legal description of property, dollar amount, percentage of estate, or residual designation) to be used to support Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford.
To designate your provision for a particular purpose:
I give to the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health, a California not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation (Tax ID:# 77-0440090), the following described property: (legal description of property, dollar amount, percentage of estate, or residual designation) to be used to support (area of focus) at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford ("Hospital").
If, in the judgment of the Hospital, changed circumstances should at some future time render the designated use of the gift no longer appropriate, then the Hospital shall use the gift to support the objects and purposes of the Hospital, giving consideration to the special interest in pediatrics and the purpose as set forth above.
If you have named the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children’s Health in your will or living trust, please let us know so we can ensure that your gift is used according to your wishes. Notifying us of your plans will enable us to plan for the use of your future gift. However, if you prefer to remain anonymous, we will keep your name and gift in strict confidence.
