Your legacy will change and save lives

You can help people receive the mental health care they need by supporting Provident Behavioral Health, one of the most comprehensive mental health care providers in St. Louis, serving thousands in the St. Louis metro region and across Missouri. If you are one of the many people who care deeply about mental wellness, please consider creating a lasting legacy to address this important need.

How can I support Provident’s mission?

To create your legacy, please consider making a planned gift to Provident. It is easy to do – just name Provident as a beneficiary to one or more of your accounts or add a provision in your estate planning documents and let us know so that we can recognize you in the Yeatman Legacy Society, a group of individuals dedicated to saving and changing lives into perpetuity.

Here are some examples:

  • Name Provident Behavioral Health as a beneficiary of your financial accounts, Traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs 401(k) or 403(b) retirement accounts or investment accounts.
  • Name Provident Behavioral Health as a beneficiary in your will or revocable living trust. If you do not have a will, you can create one for free at www.freewill.com.
  • Name Provident Behavioral Health as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy.
  • Name Provident Behavioral Health in a charitable remainder trust or charitable gift annuity

“My wife Barbara and I have been long-time supporters of Provident Behavioral Health by making both annual donations and including a legacy gift provision for Provident in each of our estate plans. We give because Provident offers each client a unique set of mental health services that not only focus on helping them address their current challenges, but also provide them a suite of supporting services that enable them to attain the skills and confidence they need to gain control over their lives, and become independent, self-reliant, and productive members of our society again.”
