LEAVE A LEGACY®

The primary goal of LEAVE A LEGACY® is to help potential donors better understand how an estate gift can profoundly impact a favored non-profit organization. Through such understanding, we hope to increase both the quantity and quality of estate or "planned" gifts. LEAVE A LEGACY® also represents a relationship between individual donors, non-profit professionals, and for-profit advisors.

The primary work of the committee is to design and implement a public awareness campaign through various media and in partnership with our community partners. A website link has been developed to provide basic information to donors and community partners. We invite you to visit our website by clicking on the LEAVE A LEGACY® link on the top navigation bar above
