Gift planning allows our donors to thoughtfully choose ways of giving that meet their needs—and the needs of the Wilmer Eye Institute. A development officer from Wilmer and the Johns Hopkins Institutions Office of Gift Planning can provide you with information on effective charitable planning options so that you can achieve optimum tax, financial and philanthropic results.
