Make a donation
Because every life deserves a dignified and humane end.
At Maison Mathieu Froment-Savoie, we believe that everyone deserves to live out their final moments in comfort. Palliative care is much more than treatment: it’s compassionate, dedicated care for people at the end of life, and support for their families during one of life’s most difficult stages.
Because your donations make all the difference.
The services offered by La Maison are entirely free of charge for patients and their families. This accessibility is made possible by the generosity of our donors. Every donation helps to preserve a place of serenity, humanity and kindness, where everyone can live out their last moments in dignity.
A donation can make all the difference.
Thanks to your support :
- Patients receive tailored medical care in a soothing environment.
- Relatives benefit from psychological support and essential respite.
- Specialized equipment is acquired to provide optimum comfort.
- The upkeep and renovation of the premises ensure a dignified welcome for all.
Because the end of life affects everyone.
A relative, a friend, a colleague: one day, we will all be touched in one way or another by the end of life. By supporting the Foundation, you are helping to build a more humane society, where we take care of each other, right up to our last breath.
Because there’s no such thing as a small donation.
Whatever the amount, every gesture counts. Whether it’s a one-time donation, a monthly gift or a gift in memory of a loved one, your contribution has a real and immediate impact.

This compassionate gesture not only honours his memory and offers your sympathy to his family and loved ones, but also makes a concrete contribution to improving the palliative care offered free of charge in our region.
Make a donation in honour of a loved one
A donation in honour is a gesture of tenderness and gratitude, dedicated to a person who is currently staying at the Maison Mathieu Froment-Savoie.
Sometimes a simple gesture can express so much more than words.
Making a donation in honour of a loved one currently in care at La Maison is a way of showing your affection and support.
This gift becomes a meaningful tribute, while contributing directly to the attentive care and comfort offered to all the people cared for at La Maison.

Supporting the future of the Maison, today
So that the Maison Mathieu Froment-Savoie can continue to offer compassionate, humane and free care to people at the end of life, your support is essential – today, and for years to come.
That’s why the Foundation attaches great importance to planned giving. These gestures of generosity, thought out over the medium to long term, help us to better anticipate the future and ensure the sustainability of our mission.
What is a planned gift?
A charitable gift is an integral part of your financial or estate planning. It can be made during your lifetime or at the time of your death, depending on your wishes, your abilities and your personal, family and tax situation.
Contrary to popular belief, this type of donation is not reserved for the wealthy or those without heirs. It’s a gesture accessible to anyone wishing to make a lasting and meaningful contribution to a cause close to their heart.

A bequest in your will is a simple and accessible way of passing on your values by supporting a cause close to your heart, without affecting your financial situation during your lifetime. By naming the Mathieu Froment-Savoie Foundation as beneficiary – in whole or in part – of your estate, you contribute to the continuity of our mission, while leaving a legacy of compassion and humanity.
This type of gift is fully modifiable and revocable at any time. We recommend that you discuss the matter with your notary, so that you can choose the form of bequest that best suits your intentions and ensure that it is properly worded. What’s more, your estate could benefit from significant tax advantages thanks to the charitable donations tax credit.
Making a bequest today will make a real difference tomorrow.
An immediate gift is a contribution made during your lifetime, and can take various forms: a gift of money, securities or property. This type of donation allows you to support the Foundation’s mission today, while enjoying significant tax benefits.
By making an immediate donation, you receive a tax receipt, which can reduce your tax burden for the current year. You also have the satisfaction of seeing the direct impact of your gesture and actively contributing to a cause close to your heart, while facilitating your own financial and philanthropic planning.
A life insurance giving strategy can turn a minimal contribution into a major gift. There are several simple and interesting options available to you. Each has its own advantages: discover the one that best suits your personal and financial situation!
Donating a new life insurance policy
Using life insurance as a philanthropic tool allows you to turn minimal contributions into major gifts. There are several simple options to consider, each with its own advantages, depending on your profile and financial goals.
For example, you can take out a new life insurance policy in the name of the Mathieu Froment-Savoie Foundation, which will also become the beneficiary. This flexible solution lets you plan a major gift while spreading the payments over a period that suits your budget.
Your insurance advisor can help you choose the plan that best suits your situation. This option is particularly advantageous for young donors, whose premiums are often more affordable, or for members of the same family wishing to combine their philanthropic efforts.
What’s more, you’ll receive a tax receipt for every premium you pay, reducing the real cost of your donation while maximizing its impact.
Gift of an existing life insurance policy
Do you have a life insurance policy you no longer need to ensure the financial security of your loved ones? Instead of cancelling it, you can donate it to the Mathieu Froment-Savoie Foundation. It’s a simple, inexpensive and potentially very tax-effective way to make a donation.
By transferring ownership of your policy to the Foundation and naming it as beneficiary, you may receive a tax receipt equivalent to the policy’s fair market value. This value is determined by an actuary according to various criteria. If premiums are still payable, you will also receive a receipt for each annual payment made.
Your insurance advisor can help you make the transfer as smoothly and efficiently as possible. Note that it is essential to evaluate, with a specialist, the possible tax impacts if the policy’s cash surrender value exceeds its adjusted cost basis.
Designate Fondation Mathieu Froment-Savoie as beneficiary of a life insurance policy
You can choose to retain ownership of your life insurance policy while designating the Mathieu Froment-Savoie Foundation as beneficiary, in whole or in part. This designation can be made directly in the policy or in your will, whichever you prefer.
This approach allows you to make a major gift at low cost, while maintaining total flexibility until your death. It can also reduce your estate’s tax burden, since an official receipt will be issued to your estate for the full value of the capital contributed to the Foundation.
Donating real estate to the Mathieu Froment-Savoie Foundation is a concrete way of supporting our mission. This type of donation allows you to transform a tangible asset into a meaningful legacy, while benefiting from significant tax advantages. You’ll receive a charitable donation receipt for the fair market value of the property, which can significantly reduce your tax liability.
What’s more, in some cases, capital gains tax may be waived. This generous gesture can be planned during your lifetime or incorporated into your will, whichever best suits your situation.
For information about a planned gift, please contact Nicolas Jaillard by e-mail: fondation@mmfs.org or by telephone: 819 770 3900, ext. 226
