About LEAVE A LEGACY®

LEAVE A LEGACY is a public awareness campaign designed to inspire people just like you to make a charitable bequest. Bequests are just one type of "planned gift" (a gift that will be distributed sometime in the future) that can be made to the organization(s) you value. 

All types of nonprofit groups, including social service and arts organizations, churches, hospitals and educational institutions can benefit from charitable bequests. You are encouraged to make a charitable bequest to the organization(s) that you deem deserving of your support.
