Resources for advisors

With any planned gift, a donor becomes a member of the Dana-Farber Society, a special community of people who have made a gift to Dana-Farber in their estate plans.
Thank you for the profound difference you make in the lives of cancer patients and their families. The important work that you undertake on behalf of your clients and our donors impacts patients here at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and around the world. Your thoughtful planning and guidance enables our physician-scientists to forge ahead with revolutionary research and unrivaled patient care.
We understand that planned gifts can be an important part of your clients’ overall financial and estate plans, and we are committed to working with you to ensure that your clients find the charitable arrangements that best meet their needs. We believe that charitable planning is a process that ideally involves the donor, professional advisors and our gift planning staff—all working together to arrange the best gift possible.
As a vital partner in our work, we encourage you to use these tools as you help your clients with their charitable plans. Please feel free to contact us for more information or assistance.
