  • Planned Giving

    Making arrangements today for a future gift to benefit Gilmour is a thoughtful gesture of gratitude that expresses your faith in our future.  Planned giving can provide valuable tax benefits for the donor and provides Gilmour with substantial and meaningful gifts.  To learn more about planned giving options, please contact Ray Murphy at (440) 473-8089 or murphyr@gilmour.org.
