Legacy Society

The Children's Shelter Legacy Society honors and recognizes the generosity and vision of who choose to leave a legacy gift to guarantee a brighter future of the children.

Those farsighted donors who through their compassion and hope provide a planned or deferred gift to The Children's Shelter Foundation qualify for membership in the Legacy Society. Enrollment is simply a matter of advising us of the creation of a legacy gift. These gifts take many forms and include:

  • Bequests through wills or living trusts;
  • Life insurance policies with The Children's Shelter Foundation as beneficiary or owner and beneficiary;
  • Homes transferred to The Children's Shelter Foundation through life estate arrangements;
  • Charitable trusts naming The Children's Shelter Foundation as a remainder beneficiary;
  • Retirement accounts naming The Children's Shelter Foundation as a beneficiary;
  • Legacy gifts will become a permanent part of The Children's Shelter Foundation endowment, ensuring that The
  • Children's Shelter can continue to provide compassionate care for our wonderful children. Planned or legacy gifts may also be designated for a specific purpose.

There are many ways you can help ensure the future of our children through a legacy gift. For more information about giving through planned gifts, click here.
