The Children’s Neurological Center 

Bringing World-Class Care to Kids in our Community 

A 

ll children should be able to reach 

for the stars, whether they have 

a perfect bill of health or a serious 

neurological condition. That’s every parent’s wish, 

as well as the vision behind The Children’s Neurological 

Center (CNC). As part of The New Jersey 

Neuroscience Institute at JFK Medical Center, our 

facility impacts thousands of families throughout 

the tri-state region by providing an extensive network 

of premier neurological services designed to give 

children the best care, and the best chance for a 

healthier future. 

“Our goal is to provide kids with the opportunity to 

achieve their potential,” asserted Okey P. Anene, 

MD, Director of CNC and Pediatric Services for 

JFK Medical Center. The institution boasts an 

extraordinary team of highly skilled, board-certified 

Pediatric Neurologist, Dr. Michael Seyffert and Willie Forsythe 

pediatric subspecialists who are leaders in their fields, 

as well as nurses, technicians, neuropsychologists, 

social workers and other professionals dedicated to 

bringing world-class neurological care to children 

in our communities. 

The facility offers a comprehensive scope of medical 

and surgical services for all kinds of childhood 

neurological disorders. Among its distinctions, 

CNC is the region’s only program with pediatric 

neurology, neurosurgery and rehabilitation under 

one umbrella; it has the largest radiodiagnostic center 

for brain tumors in the state. 

CNC provides a compassionate, kid-friendly environment 

that encompasses every discipline, technology 

and resource a child may need during his or 

her journey from diagnosis through recovery. 

(Continued on next page)

The Children’s Neurological Center (continued from previous page) 

Families using the services of CNC never 

have to travel around the state for specialty 

care; they simply walk down the hall. And 

that can mean a lot when a child is sick, 

undergoing long-term treatment—or when 

a family is seeking first class care close to 

home. 

Our clinical centers of excellence include the 

following inpatient and outpatient programs: 

Sleep Program 

Under the direction of two of the world’s 

top authorities in sleep medicine, the 

Pediatric Sleep Center at The New Jersey 

Neuroscience Institute is the only facility 

in the state that provides evaluation and 

treatment for all sleep disorders, including 

sleep apnea, night terrors, childhood 

insomnia, restless leg syndrome and other 

problems that collectively impact up to 

one-fourth of children under the age of 18. 

The program is comprised of an outpatient 

center as well as a recently expanded 

sleep laboratory for around-the-clock observation 

and monitoring. Furthermore, its 

physicians are published internationally for 

their extensive research and oversee a sleep 

fellowship program—training and mentoring 

other doctors pursuing advanced certifications 

in adult and child sleep medicine. 

Neurosurgery 

The Children’s Neurological Center has 

the depth and experience to surgically treat 

epilepsy, brain and spinal cord tumors, 

spina bifida, spasticity from (or complica-

tions of) cerebral palsy, 

hydrocephalus and any 

type of neurological 

condition. It is one of a 

few centers in New 

Jersey with a dedicated 

pediatric neurosurgeon 

who works collaboratively 

with additional 

subspecialists to employ 

the latest minimally 

invasive and endoscopic 

techniques, including 

the gamma knife and 

cutting edge neuronavigation 

imaging 

technology that has 

made surgeries safer 

and available to children previously diagnosed 

with “inoperable” tumors. 

Brain & Spinal Cord Tumors 

Few things are more frightening to parents 

than learning their child has cancer. At 

CNC, we do everything possible to ease 

their fears by providing the most advanced 

tools and promising interventions for both 

malignant and benign brain and spinal 

cord tumors. Our multi-disciplinary team 

addresses every aspect of medical care, 

incorporating the expertise of pediatric 

neuro-oncologists, neurosurgeons, intensivists, 

neuro-pathologists, radiation oncologists 

and numerous other specialties. We 

are the only New Jersey facility equipped 

with gamma knife technology, a breakthrough 

treatment for brain 

tumors and arteriovenous 

malformation (AVM), while 

also providing radiosurgery, 

intensity modulated radiation 

therapy (IMRT) and 

chemotherapy. 

Epilepsy 

CNC welcomes a large 

percentage of the state’s 

pediatric epilepsy patients 

with a program featuring 

the newest assessment tools 

and therapeutic innova- 

Video EEG Monitoring Room 

tions. A cutting edge video EEG monitoring 

unit, for example, measures the brain’s 

electrical activity, enabling physicians to 

determine the location or origin of seizures 

and recommend the best course of treatment. 

The program’s wide array of interventions 

includes ketogenic diet, vagus 

nerve stimulation and other effective surgical 

techniques. 

Neurobehavioral Disorders 

CNC offers a uniquely integrated 

approach to neurobehavioral disorders, 

such as Autism, learning disabilities, 

attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder 

(ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder 

(OCD), and movements disorders. 

Intervention begins with advanced imaging 

modalities, such as state-of-the-art 

positron emission tomography (PET) and 

computed tomography (CT) scanners to 

facilitate accurate diagnoses. Treatments 

are tailored to each child and may include 

new low-dose medications and recently 

introduced parent/child and group therapies. 

Neurological Rehabilitation 

At least one-third of CNC’s patients 

require rehabilitation, which makes a dedicated 

pediatric rehab facility a welcome 

component of our vast continuum of care. 

Housed in the nearby JFK Johnson 

Rehabilitation Institute, services of the

Pediatric Rehabilitation Department are 

designed for children with any type of 

neurological illness or injury impacting 

cognitive, physical, emotional, social, 

psychological and/or educational functioning. 

JFK operates one of the state’s largest 

outpatient centers of its kind, incorporating 

physical, occupational and speech therapy 

as well as programs for social development 

and other vital skills that help patients 

optimize their independence and quality of 

life. These services are complemented by 

school and community-based programs. 

Inpatient Care Unit 

When hospitalization is required, CNC 

patients are cared for in JFK Medical 

Center’s 22-bed inpatient pediatric unit, 

which includes a designated special care 

unit for critically ill children. Children are 

nurtured in a soothing, family-focused 

atmosphere that fosters exceptional standards 

of quality care. The unit is directed 

by a board-certified pediatric intensivist 

and staffed by physicians and nurses who 

are trained and experienced in treating 

young patients with neurological problems 

and those recovering from surgery. 

Additionally, the unit is among the most 

“wired” in New Jersey, equipped with computerized 

charting and medication management 

systems that maximize patient 

safety. ❦

A Message from 

the Chairman 

Dear Friends, 

Spring has arrived and with it a new season for the 

JFK Medical Center Foundation. Our organization is 

flourishing alongside the seeds of change—from new 

leadership, to grand goals and empowering plans for the future. 

The past year reflected tremendous strides in JFK Medical Center’s philanthropic 

program, as the Foundation generated more than $2.3 million in revenue, an increase 

of seven percent over 2005. The monies were raised through numerous initiatives, 

topped by our 2006 Annual Appeal, which was the most successful in nearly a decade, 

and such events as the Solaris Invitational and JFK Golf Classic. Together, these two 

annual traditions generated over $326,000 for the New Jersey Neuroscience Institute, 

the JFK Johnson Rehabilitation Institute’s Center for Head Injury and Alzheimer’s 

Disease and Dementia programs. 

Extraordinary support from the community was paralleled by the unfailing dedication 

of the Auxiliary of the JFK Medical Center Foundation. In addition to fulfilling its 

record-breaking $3 million pledge to the hospital, the Auxiliary donated an initial 

$30,000 on their new $2.5 million pledge. The group’s stewardship and fundraising 

efforts exemplify the genuine spirit of charitable giving. 

We fully expect to expand on these accomplishments in 2007, positioning the hospital 

for accelerated growth and maintaining JFK Medical Center’s reputation as a leading 

health care provider. Faced with declining reimbursements for such programs as 

Medicare, Medicaid and charity care, the needs of the Medical Center are greater than 

ever. The JFK Medical Center Foundation is working diligently to secure resources for 

a myriad of quality enhancements, clinical investments and new facilities, and remains 

optimistic about the future. 

With the sustained generosity of our donors, we are confident that we will continue to 

meet the region’s health priorities by fostering a culture of excellence and expanding 

our continuum of care. In 2007, we look forward to funding additional enrichments for 

the Children’s Neurological Center, construction of a new long-term care facility, and 

other essential projects. 

As you read this issue of “Touching Lives,” I hope you will share my enthusiasm for 

the many exciting things in store for our hospital, our patients and residents of central 

New Jersey. On behalf of our Foundation Board and staff, please accept my gratitude 

for your ongoing support. I invite you to visit us and see first-hand how your gifts are 

making a difference at JFK Medical Center. ❦ 

Sincerely, 

John G. McDonough, DMD

Donna M. Meade 

Joins the Foundation 

I 

f there’s one thing Donna Meade 

understands, it’s “TouchingLives.” 

As the new Executive Director of the 

JFK Medical Center Foundation, she 

embraced the renamed publication as a 

vehicle for fulfilling the organization’s 

vision as well as more personal aspirations. 

With nearly 30 years in the non-profit 

sector, Ms. Meade has dedicated her entire 

career to helping people and enriching 

society. 

Donna comes to the JFK Medical Center 

Foundation with a diverse background 

in development, community relations and 

all aspects of fundraising and non-profit 

management. She most recently served as 

President/Chief Executive Officer of the 

Tri-County Scholarship Fund (TCSF), 

which provides financial assistance and 

mentoring to deserving, economically disadvantaged 

children in Passaic, Morris and 

Sussex Counties. Under her stewardship, 

the organization doubled its endowment 

fund over three years and awarded scholarships 

to more than 900 children annually. 

Prior to TCSF, Meade was Chief 

Operating Officer for Kean University 

Foundation, Union, New Jersey. 

“The JFK Medical Center Foundation is 

an exciting, challenging opportunity for 

me to channel my fundraising experience,” 

said Meade. “I have contributed to a broad 

spectrum of humanitarian causes, higher 

education and community-based organizations. 

Health care is a natural extension 

and I look forward to working diligently 

on JFK Medical Center’s behalf to help 

provide the best medical care for residents 

of central New Jersey.” 

In her new position, Donna seeks to energize 

the Foundation’s philanthropic efforts 

with initiatives designed to expand the 

4 | SPRING 2007 

TouchingLives 

Foundation’s Board of Directors and 

donor base while invigorating corporate 

and community interest in supporting JFK 

Medical Center. “We are extremely fortunate 

to have Donna on board to guide the 

Foundation through a pivotal period of 

growth and progress,” asserted John Nolan, 

Senior Vice President of Foundations, 

“ 

Together, I am certain 

we can impact the quality 

of health care available 

” 

to our community. 

—Donna M. Meade— 

Solaris Health System. “Her success in 

growing non-profit organizations and 

building endowments will be of great value 

as the Foundation renews its commitment 

to advancing the hospital’s vital mission.” 

Over the years, Meade has been recognized 

for her far-reaching accomplishments. She 

was recently honored by the Women’s 

Fund of New Jersey for outstanding 

contributions to non-profit organizations 

and currently serves as Board Member and 

Vice President of Executive Women of 

New Jersey, where she works to promote 

scholastic and professional opportunities 

for women. Additionally, Meade is an 

active member of the Association of 

Fundraising Professionals (AFP), New 

Jersey Chapter, and the Middlesex County 

Chamber of Commerce. 

Donna has a Bachelor of Arts in 

Communications from Queens College 

(CUNY) and a Master’s Degree in Public 

Administration from University of Central 

Florida. She also holds a Non-profit 

Management Certification from Harvard 

Business School and has completed several 

other professional development seminars. 

Meade’s strong philanthropic spirit is 

complemented by her focus on family. She 

devotes most of her free time to her 

husband, Blas Ruiz Diaz, and her three 

children, Daniel, David and Natalie, as 

well as her avid interest in cultural cuisine. 

“I am truly enthused about bringing a fresh 

approach to JFK Medical Center’s 

fundraising efforts and collaborating with 

colleagues, benefactors and other constituents 

to infuse more resources into the 

hospital’s continuum of services,” added 

Meade. “Together, I am certain we can 

impact the quality of health care available 

to our community.” ❦

teve Rothman has a long 

history with JFK Medical 

Center. After growing up in 

Edison, and earning a Bachelor of Science 

from The College of New Jersey, he 

began his professional career as an accountant 

in the hospital’s Finance Department. 

Twenty-seven years later, as Senior Vice 

President, Investments for UBS Financial 

Services Inc., he has returned to serve on 

the JFK Medical Center Foundation Board 

of Directors. 

Mr. Rothman has steadily climbed the 

ranks at UBS Financial Services Inc. since 

joining the company as a financial advisor 

in 1981. In his present role, he manages

planning, college funding, retirement 

planning, tax management strategies 

and other investments. Additionally, Mr.

T 

he late Dr. Girija N. Roy, 

a prominent Scotch Plains veterinarian 

and community activist, 

viewed the achievement of professional 

success as an obligation to his family, and 

helping the less fortunate as an obligation 

to his faith—a greater obligation, and one 

that guided his 64 years on earth. 

Encapsulated in the Hindi word “seva,” 

Dr. Roy dedicated his life to serving others. 

“Whether it was service to family, friends, 

clients or the community, Papa touched 

and improved countless lives in so many 

different ways,” said his son, Pryia Roy. 

That is why his family decided that the 

best way to honor his memory would be to 

perpetuate his charitable legacy, while also 

honoring an institution that shared his 

passion for giving. On the first anniversary 

of his passing, in January 2007, the Roy 

family along with friends donated $50,001 

to JFK Medical Center’s cancer program. 

Born in a rural village in Bihar, India, 

Dr. Roy immigrated to the United States 

in 1971 with about $10 in his pocket and 

dreams of new opportunity. He made a

home in Central New Jersey, where he 

opened three animal hospitals and practiced 

veterinary medicine for 27 years. 

Dr. Roy’s allegiance to the profession was 

complemented by a social responsibility to 

both his homeland and local communities. 

He was President of BJANA, an Indian 

service organization, and active in numerous 

other Hindi causes, while also aiding the 

American Red Cross, Rotary International 

and various humanitarian efforts. His sons 

proudly recall him raising money to help 

the sick and underserved abroad, and 

treating rescue dogs at the World Trade 

Center following the tragedy of September 

11. Dr. Roy was extraordinarily generous 

in all facets of his life, so it was only fitting 

that he received the same compassionate 

care during his own family’s time of need. 

When Dr. Roy was diagnosed with 

cancer, his family traveled to the most 

prestigious health care institutions in the 

country. “Yet we found that the medical 

care provided by a hospital only five miles 

from our home far surpassed the care he 

received at the more famous institutions,” 

“ 

Don’t wait 

until someone is 

sick to come into 

the hospital… 

Come inside now 

and make 

” 

a difference. 

—Mukesh Roy— 

stated Pryia Roy. “The doctors, nurses and 

every member of the JFK Medical Center 

staff treated my father with the utmost 

compassion and respect, and treated our 

family as part of their own. They truly 

exemplified seva.” 

For months, the Roy family thought of the 

hospital as their second home, spending 

every day and evening by their loved one’s 

side. They forged relationships with the 

nurses on all shifts, touched by their 

consistent acts of kindness. 

“They made us feel special,” asserted Mr. 

Roy. “That’s why we wanted to give something 

back to the hospital and other 

patients in hope that their experiences 

will be similar to ours, and that we can 

contribute to improving cancer care for 

families in our community.” 

The gift of $50,001 was earmarked for 

enhancements to the medical center’s 

outpatient Infusion Center, including 

additional chairs and amenities for 

chemotherapy patients as well as advanced 

technologies for diagnosing and treating 

cancer.

“We are deeply grateful to the Roy family 

and their friends for their philanthropic 

generosity, which will help JFK 

Medical Center provide the highest quality 

oncology services,” stated John G. 

McDonough, DMD, Chair, JFK Medical 

Center Foundation. “The donation enables 

us to accommodate more patients in the 

Infusion Center while offering a more comfortable 

environment that alleviates some of 

the stress associated with serious illness.” 

JFK Medical Center’s modernized Infusion 

Center was dedicated in Dr. Roy’s memory 

on January 26, 2007. The heart-warming 

ceremony was attended by several members 

of the hospital and Roy family, as well as 

such distinguished guests as Edison Mayor 

Jun Choi, Assemblyman Upendra Chivukula 

and Congressman Frank Pallone, Jr., who 

was a personal friend of Dr. Roy. 

“This is not the end of our support, but the 

beginning,” said Mr. Roy. “Our family 

looks forward to more charitable activities 

to help the hospital grow and serve those 

in need.” 

“We hope to follow in our father’s footsteps,” 

added Mukesh Roy, who was also 

present at the Infusion Center dedication. 

“We feel a calling to do more…to volunteer 

and inspire others in the community to 

come forth and get involved.” 

“Don’t wait until someone is sick to come 

into the hospital,” he urged. “Come inside 

now and make a difference.” ❦

Milestone Year 

T 

he Auxiliary of the JFK

had plenty to celebrate in 2006, as 

it concluded one of the most exciting 

years in the organization’s history. At 

its General Meeting held in October, 

Auxiliary Co-Presidents Judith L. Spiegel 

and Doris B. De Sarno presented a check 

to John P. McGee, President/CEO of 

Solaris Health System, symbolizing the 

fulfillment of the Auxiliary’s $3 million 

pledge to JFK Medical Center. The pledge 

was committed in 2000 and represents the 

largest gift ever issued by the Auxiliary. 

“This was a thrilling moment for us and a 

very big milestone in the life of the 

Auxiliary,” stated Mrs. Spiegel. 

That donation was followed by a second 

check representing the Auxiliary’s initial 

payment toward its $2.5 million pledge 

to the JFK Medical Center’s 2004 Capital 

Campaign. The money is earmarked for 

the new ambulatory care building, 

which will be named JFK Auxiliary 

Ambulatory Care Plaza in honor of the 

organization’s generosity.

is not just a patient at the 

Children’s Neurological Center 

(CNC). He’s part of the family. 

A division of the New Jersey Neuroscience 

Institute and regional leader in pediatric 

neurology, CNC has been the central 

resource for Willie’s medical care since he 

was a toddler. Challenged by a myriad of 

complex neurological conditions, he has 

grown and thrived under the compassionate 

expertise of CNC’s dedicated team of 

specialists. He truly exemplifies the unique 

commitment between families and clinicians 

as they journey together toward healing, 

hope and attaining each child’s fullest 

potential. 

“The staff treats Willie as if he was their 

own son…understanding and addressing 

his needs, encouraging him, nurturing him, 

and helping him be the best he can be,” said 

his mom, Deborah Forsythe. In her view, 

CNC is far more than a doctors’ office. For 

Willie, it is a safe haven that has given him 

the comfort, courage and confidence to 

succeed. 

The Forsythes, formerly residents of South 

Plainfield, New Jersey, came to CNC on 

the recommendation of their pediatrician 

and other trusted childcare professionals. 

Dr. Michael Seyffert and Willie Forsythe 

10 | SPRING 2007 

They were concerned about Willie’s development 

at just 2 years old, noticing delays 

in his speech, muscle weakness, eating 

behaviors and social behaviors. Following a 

comprehensive evaluation by CNC’s multi- 

“ 

The staff treats Willie 

as if he was their own 

son…understanding and 

addressing his needs, 

encouraging him, nurturing 

him, and helping him 

be the best he can be. 

—Deborah Forsythe— 

” 

disciplinary group of pediatric subspecialists, 

Willie was diagnosed with several neurodevelopmental 

problems and his family 

was presented with a clear, coordinated 

treatment plan. 

“That is what distinguishes the Children’s 

Neurological Center from other facilities,” 

stated pediatric neurologist Michael Seyffert, 

MD, Medical Director, Child Evaluation 

Center. “We have many renowned neurological 

experts under one roof, giving us the 

ability to work together, reach a consensus 

and provide an integrated 

approach to diagnosis and 

treatment.” 

Willie received occupational, 

physical and speech 

therapy at CNC, showing 

dramatic progress within 

weeks. A young child with 

limited interaction and 

vocabulary began singing 

songs and conversing with 

others, while also learning 

how to tie his shoes, button 

his clothes and even 

throw a ball. “This early 

intervention gave Willie the self-esteem to 

overcome his fears and the freedom to grow 

up,” said Mrs. Forsythe. “So when he went 

to pre-school, he boarded the bus with a 

smile and said ‘See ya, Mom.’ That was 

awesome.” 

Over the years, Willie has faced additional 

hurdles associated with attention deficit/ 

hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), sleep 

problems and other neurological complications. 

According to Dr. Seyffert, ADHD is 

the most common childhood neuropsychiatric 

disorder, affecting close to 10 percent 

of all children, and often co-exists with 

related medical conditions. 

“For that reason, it is so important to treat 

the whole child,” asserted Dr. Seyffert. 

“The Children’s Neurological Center is 

staffed and equipped to handle multiple 

issues at the same time and consider every 

aspect of a child’s development and wellbeing.” 

Although the Forsythes moved to East 

Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, CNC has continued 

to serve as Willie’s primary health 

provider. “Everyone at the center—from 

the doctors to the technicians—has been 

wonderful,” remarked Mrs. Forsythe. 

“I don’t mind traveling a little longer to get 

Willie the best care.” 

Willie has progressed tremendously under 

the guidance of CNC, making great strides 

in such areas as speech, fine motor coordination 

and behavioral modification. Now 

in the sixth grade, he is excelling in school 

and pursuing such interests as karate, soccer 

and has aspirations of becoming a veterinarian. 

“The Children’s Neurological Center 

helped Willie emerge into a confident, 

more self-reliant child who is leading a full 

life,” added Mrs. Forsythe. “They don’t 

treat him as a sick kid, but as a person who 

is happy being himself…I couldn’t ask for 

more.” ❦

Solaris Nurses Feel 

the Pull to Magnet 

P 

aris may be a continent away, but some hot new 

“couture” has surfaced right here at JFK Medical 

Center! Every Wednesday, nurses from each floor 

don attention-grabbing tee shirts that read “Guess Where 

We’re Going?” It’s a spirited way of generating buzz about one 

of JFK’s most exciting pursuits…Magnet designation. 

In 2005, JFK Medical Center joined Solaris Health System in 

a collaborative goal of attaining this coveted recognition for 

nursing excellence. The initiative began with a kick-off event 

introducing the criteria for achieving Magnet status, which is 

awarded by the American Nurses Credentialing Center. 

Armed with confidence and perseverance, nurses embraced 

the monumental challenge of proving clinical proficiency and 

quality in 14 key areas of nursing practice and set out to identify 

165 pieces of evidence that show why JFK Medical Center 

ranks among the nation’s best hospitals for nursing care. 

With funding from the JFK Medical Center Foundation, a 

team of nurses representing 18 hospital departments also set 

out to Miami, Florida, where they attended an empowering 

Magnet conference. “They came back with a better understanding 

of Magnet so they could spread the word and champion 

this critical endeavor at JFK,” stated Laura Mularz, 

APRN, BC, MSN, CNS, Clinical Nurse Specialist and 

Magnet Coordinator for Solaris. “They garnered valuable 

insights into the evaluation process and initiatives implemented 

at other Magnet institutions.” 

JFK has moved toward Magnet by collecting demonstrative 

data and launching several innovative programs that further 

enhance patient care, nursing retention and recruitment, staff 

morale and the ultimate result of better patient outcomes. For 

example, the hospital is offering rewards and incentives to 

nurses who choose to further their education, seek specialty 

certification or join professional organizations. JFK also 

gained access to a national database that allows the Medical 

Center to benchmark quality improvement measures, productivity, 

mortality rates and other success indicators against 

other hospitals across the country. 

“This effort is an extension of JFK’s commitment to providing 

outstanding health care. It has unified and motivated our 

entire staff, incorporating the support of nursing, physicians 

and other disciplines,” said Ms. Mularz. “We’re striving to 

achieve Magnet status by 2008.” As one of only about 240 

in the country, it will be an honorable distinction for the 

hospital and another source of pride for patients and the 

community. ❦

A Guide for Giving 

B 

y making a gift to JFK 

Medical Center (JFKMC) 

Foundation you are joining a 

group of dedicated and generous community 

members who have chosen to help guarantee 

the future of quality health care at JFK 

Medical Center. Outright gifts are the 

most common gifts received by the 

JFKMC Foundation. Most frequently, 

this is in the form of cash by check, credit 

card or money order. The Foundation also 

welcomes gifts of securities and real property 

and personal property. Outright gifts 

to JFKMC Foundation are tax deductible 

as allowed by law. 

A gift today of a fixed-dollar amount or 

appreciated securities such as stocks or 

bonds may allow you to take a current 

charitable income tax deduction for the 

full market value of the assets contributed. 

The Annual Fund 

By making a gift through the Annual 

Fund, you provide the essential support 

needed to expand clinical services and programs 

for patients, and maintain and 

enhance the facility. Annual fund gifts are 

generally unrestricted for priority use by 

JFK Medical Center. 

Matching Gifts 

Matching gifts are provided by employers 

to encourage community investment and 

enable donors to double (or even triple) 

their gifts. 

Endowment Fund 

An endowment fund provides long-term 

financial stability, security and growth. 

Gifts to the endowment are a permanent 

investment in the mission and goals of JFK 

Medical Center. Your gift can be directed 

to the general endowment fund—named 

endowment funds can be established for a 

gift of $25,000 and above. The investment

earnings on your gift will be used each year 

to support medical services and programs 

at JFK Medical Center. 

Planned Gifts 

Planned gifts are arranged during a donor’s 

lifetime, however, the benefits to JFK 

Medical Center often do not accrue until 

the donor or donor’s beneficiaries are 

deceased. Bequests are the most common 

planned gifts; others include life income 

agreements (such as charitable trusts), life 

insurance and retirement plans. You can 

help JFKMC Foundation plan for the 

future by informing us of your planned 

gift. 

Bequest 

A bequest is an outright or residual gift 

made through your will. 

Life Income Gift 

By establishing a charitable trust you can 

make a gift and retain the right to receive 

income payments for life. Gifts to charitable 

trusts entitle you to a current tax deduction 

and allow you to avoid capital gains tax. 

Gift of Life Insurance 

Life insurance may be a means to make a 

much larger gift than you thought possible.

JFKMC Foundation to commemorate a 

special event, such as the birth of a child, 

an anniversary or birthday; a new job, promotion 

or retirement; or gifts to perpetuate 

the memory of a loved one, family 

member, friend, mentor or colleague. The 

individual or family honored by the gift is
