Professional Advisory Council

The mission of the Professional Advisory Council (PAC) is to help donors with charitable, financial and estate planning services when a philanthropic gift is designated to the Torrance Memorial Health Care Foundation.

Some council members work in our community as CPAs, accountants, financial planners and attorneys. Others are experts in real estate, investments or insurance. All are trained to assist donors with tax, estate and income challenges. Planned giving consultations may include the design of charitable remainder trusts, annuity trusts, lead trusts and life estates.

The PAC sponsors financial planning seminars and meets four times annually. For member information, click here or call Joe Ward at 310-784-4843.

Heritage Society

If you are thinking about adding Torrance Memorial Medical Center to your estate plan or have included the medical center in your will, you are invited to participate in the Heritage Society. The Heritage Society is designed to recognize individuals who want to give something back to their community through a financial planned gift to the hospital. Heritage Society members provide an endowment that will serve South Bay residents for generations to come.
