Memorial donations

Naming the Pulmonary Hypertension Association as the recipient of memorial gifts in your loved one’s name honors the strength and courage of their fight while also uniting your friends and family in making strides for all those touched by pulmonary hypertension.

Notifying PHA

Each issue of Pathlight, PHA’s quarterly magazine, acknowledges people who have lost their battle with PH. PHA publishes the Passages list in each issue of Pathlight to honor those who are gone but not forgotten. The accuracy of this list is very important to us.

Please notify PHA about a death as soon as you can, so we can include your loved one in our Passages list and update our records.

Newspaper notices

When including a request for donations in memory of a loved one in a newspaper notice, PHA suggests the following format:

“The family requests memorial contributions be sent to the Pulmonary Hypertension Association, 1121 14th St. NW, Suite 150, Washington D.C., 20005, or make a memorial gift online.”

Sending thanks

When PHA receives a memorial gift, we will promptly send a letter to the person or family indicated, notifying them of the thoughtful donation. We will also mail a letter to the donor, thanking them for their generosity.

To inform us about a loved one’s death or ask questions about making a memorial gift, call  301-565-3004, ext. 755, or email us.
