Gifts In Honor/Memoriam

In memoriam
The loss of a loved one, friend or colleague often inspires us to ensure their memory lives on. Many people find supporting Cooper University Hospital is an ideal way to honor someone who has passed away. Gifts made “in memoriam” offer a lasting tribute to a loved one while providing family and friends satisfaction of knowing they have helped others.

In honor
And sometimes words are simply not enough to thank someone who has helped you during a hospital stay or difficult time. Gifts made “in honor” recognize the outstanding contributions made by our doctors, nurses and other staff members or volunteers. It's a lasting gift that will surely brighten someone's day.

In celebration
Whether you are marking the birth of a baby, a complete recovery or another achievement, consider making a donation to Cooper University Hospital a part of your celebration. It's a satisfying way to celebrate, knowing you are helping Cooper continue its important work.
