American friends
The American Friends of Erskine Hospital Inc was established in 2003 as a United States not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization. It’s run by a group of US citizen volunteers who are proud of Scotland’s military heritage and keen to show their support for Scottish Veterans.
Each year we need to raise $11 million to care for the brave men and women who depend on our services. The Board of the American Friends has unanimously agreed to support this appeal. You can help in a number of ways.
What your donations can buy
$25 can help purchase step stools used in physiotherapy
$500 can help purchase an infra red lamp for physiotherapy
$2,000 can help purchase hydraulic beds

Bequests and planned giving
Bequests have always been very important to Erskine. By making such a special gift to the American Friends you can help us care for Scotland’s Veterans for years to come. You can also reduce the estate and other taxes which might become due after your death.
Your choice of how to benefit the American Friends of Erskine Hospital, and the estate and income tax implications of that gift, will depend upon your personal circumstances. You should discuss this with your attorney or estate-planning advisor.
