LET’S TALK

With the forever-model of The Community Foundation in mind, I regularly talk with donors about their end of life plans. Over the last few months, my conversations with donors about their planned giving has doubled.

During this global pandemic, it seems we have all become more aware of how precious life is. As we examine our lives, it can also cause us to examine our mortality. Many people are taking some time to create or review their estate plans. If now is the time to get your house in order, it may also be the right time to consider the legacy you will leave behind.

Read on to hear the stories of several donors who were able to work with The Community Foundation to achieve their charitable goals and make a lasting impact on the organizations and causes that mattered most during their lifetimes. By letting us know that you plan to include The Community Foundation in your estate plan, you’ll be a part of our Legacy Society. More than sixty individuals and couples are a part of this group and receive regular updates and information about the happenings at the Foundation.

As you pause to take stock of what is most important to you, know that we are here to help you create your legacy today, tomorrow, and always. Where neighbors create legacies
