Al Maggini—A Loyal and Savvy Supporter of Memorial
Al Maggini’s support has taken many forms during his 60-year affiliation with Memorial Hospital.
A former chair of the hospital’s Board of Trustees, Al understood the need for a hospital foundation to provide philanthropic support for Memorial. He spearheaded the formation of the Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital Foundation a quarter century ago. His involvement with every fundraising campaign for the hospital since its founding has been a major contributor to the success of those campaigns.
When asked why his support of Memorial has remained
so strong throughout the years, Al didn’t hesitate. “I believe in the mission of the Sisters of St. Joseph and their commitment to helping the poor. I was raised to believe that you share what you have with those who are in need, and that is what the Sisters do for our community.”
A retired stockbroker, Al brings a lot of savvy to his personal philanthropy. For the past decade, Al’s preferred method of supporting the hospital has been through the establishment of charitable gift annuities.

The Gift that Gives Back
Assuring your financial security and fulfilling your desire to support Santa Rosa Memorial or Hospice Services need not be competing goals. With a charitable gift annuity
(CGA), you can leave a lasting legacy to support the work of the hospital or our hospices, and, at the same time, generate additional income, tax savings and other financial benefits for you and your family today.
A CGA is a contract between you and Santa Rosa Memorial. A CGA can be established for either one or two individuals. The person or persons will receive
guaranteed, fixed payments
for life. The amount of the
payments depends on the age of the person(s) who will be receiving the income. The annuity can be funded with either cash or securities. Payment rates vary with the ages of the individual(s) receiving the income. Refer to the chart to see the rates for one person. If you are interested in the rates for two annuitants, please let us

“Supporting the hospital is important to me, and if I can realize tax benefits at the same time, why not?”
A charitable gift annuity offers a significant tax deduction at the time it is established, as well as fixed income for life. Further, the income is also partially tax exempt.
“For me, this is a win-win. I have a way of providing support to the hospital while minimizing my tax bill. Who wouldn’t think that’s a good idea?”

know and we will be happy to provide those rates to you.
Because a portion of the gift annuity will ultimately be used for charitable purposes to support our hospital or our hospices, you may
claim a sizeable income tax
deduction at the time you make the gift. For example, an 80-year-old donor would receive an income tax deduction of $12,688 on a $25,000 charitable gift annuity. In addition, a significant portion of each payment received may be tax free. Charitable gift annuities offer you a safe, lifelong income stream with extremely attractive rates. Younger donors may opt to defer receipt of payments for several years. By doing so, they will realize a larger payout once they start receiving payments.
Provide for OthersSome people have used charitable gift annuities as a way to provide additional income to a parent, sibling or friend (this may even be done anonymously), or to ensure retirement income for a long-time employee.
Consider an example where you are providing regular
support to your parents. Normally, these payments would come from your after-tax dollars. However, by establishing a gift annuity that benefits them, they would receive a reliable income for life that will be partially tax exempt to them and would provide you with a sizable income tax deduction at the time the CGA is established.
Gift annuities are a great way to support Santa Rosa Memorial or Hospice Services. In addition, they may result in gift, estate and income tax savings while ensuring lifelong, guaranteed income for you or a loved one.
How can you participate? Please contact Liz Tunney Williams at (707) 547-4692 or [email protected] to learn how the charitable gift annuity can help you meet your priorities—and help build a stronger future for you and Santa Rosa Memorial or Hospice Services. All information you provide will be held in the strictest of confidence.

Thanks to the generous
support of our donors,
the first two of three
3-D Tomosynthesis
Mammography Systems
will be installed later this
summer. One will be
located at Memorial’s Imaging Center at 121 Sotoyome and
the other within Petaluma Valley Hospital. This technology
will transform the way patients in our community receive
screenings and diagnoses for breast cancer.
The tomosynthesis technology allows physicians to see
breast tissue with clarity never before possible. It can detect
small tumors at an earlier stage which will lead to earlier
diagnoses of cancerous tumors. The new 3-D equipment
will significantly improve our ability to identify invasive
cancers. It will reduce the number of false positives as well
as the need for call-backs and unnecessary biopsies, sparing
patients the anxiety that comes with uncertainty. Earlier
diagnoses will translate into better outcomes. In short, this
advanced technology will transform how we diagnose and
treat breast cancer.
Fundraising is underway for a third 3-D mammography
machine, which will also be located in 121 Sotoyome.
Once installed, this revolutionary new technology will be
accessible to 100% of our patients.
The role of philanthropy is more important than ever.
Providing patients with the care that they deserve requires
the best clinicians and advanced technology. We ask that you
invest in our future to advance cancer care in our community.
For information about how you can help, please contact the
Foundation office or visit www.GivetoMemorial.org.

If You Are Taking Required Minimum Distributions from Your IRA…
• Are you required to withdraw more funds from your IRA than you need right now?
• Do you think you may need additional income in the future?
• Are you hesitant to make the gift you want to make now because of potential future needs?
• Have you been considering leaving a portion of your estate to the hospital or hospice through your will or other long-range plans?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, a deferred gift annuity may be the perfect solution.
A deferred gift annuity guarantees that you will receive a pre-determined amount of income for as long as you live, but the income will not begin until a future date of your choice.
You’ll still be required to report the funds you withdraw from your IRA as current income, but as with a regular charitable gift annuity, you will be able to claim an income tax deduction based on the value of the deferred gift annuity, reducing your total tax bill.
Example: Hank Kaplan will turn 70½ this year, and will be required to withdraw $100,000 from his IRA. He does not need the funds now, but is concerned about having sufficient income in the future. He decides to establish a gift annuity for $100,000 and to delay the payments for ten years. At that time, he will begin receiving $9,300 per year for as long as he lives.
Mr. Kaplan will be entitled to an income tax deduction of almost $65,000 in the year he makes the gift, which will help reduce his income tax. Further, he may utilize any excess deduction over an additional five years.
Mr. Kaplan is pleased with the “secondary retirement income” he has created while providing a meaningful gift to support St. Joseph Health.
