YNHH Giving Societies

In response to the growing number of supporters who have made increasingly significant commitments to Yale New Haven Hospital, we offer two options, an annual giving society and a planned giving society, to recognize and show appreciation of our dedicated donors. Membership is determined based on a donor's cumulative gifts throughout the Fiscal Year.  We are very grateful to those friends who are able to invest in the future of Yale New Haven Hospital by participating in one of the categories below.
