Improving Lives, Building Futures

Giving to Gilead “A legacy gift is about showing your children and other loved ones in your family how a thoughtful process can make a meaningful difference.” You don’t have to be a millionaire to leave a legacy gift to an organization you care about. One reason we chose to leave a gift to Gilead in our will is simply because we truly believe in Gilead’s mission. In 2008 we were asked if we’d like to have a Gilead client join us for our Quizine dinner. That was when we met Norma. This year we celebrated our sixth annual Quizine dinner together. Norma joins our family for holidays, our sons’ sporting events, or just for a simple meal or errand. Norma is a Gilead success story and it is through our relationship with her that we have learned how important and vital Gilead’s services are to the clients. Leaving a gift to Gilead in our will is also a way to remind our children that giving to others is something we believe in, strongly. If all three of our sons catch on to our philosophy we will be contributing to the future through them. The next generation is learning from the current generation at all times – just as we realize we have learned from our parents and the parents of our friends. Probably the main reason we made a bequest to Gilead in our will is for the simple fact that it makes us feel good. We can see that the money is spent wisely and we enjoy the fact that the recipients of these essential mental health services live right here, in our community. Jean & Mike Monahan
