Reasons to Donate

Unrestricted gifts have no strings attached. Essentially, you let Geisinger Foundation or one of our medical departments decide how best to use your gift.

There are two kinds of unrestricted support: annual gifts, which fund current operations, and endowments, which are invested to produce a stream of unrestricted income over time.

For either type of contribution, the word that is always used to describe the importance of such gifts is "flexibility."

How are unrestricted funds used?

Geisinger Center for Health Research

Some fulfill needs that arise quickly and urgently; others are used to strengthen ongoing medical programs; all serve to advance Geisinger's mission.
