We are asking for you to dig deep, beyond what you give to our annual campaign.

Building endowments is critical for our future, but we still face monthly expenses.  So we need your ongoing support.  “One Gift | Twice the Impact” is a unique opportunity to grow our endowment exponentially, so that we can enrich our people and programs for even greater impact, for years to come.

Establishing a fund with Legacy provides permanent support to organizations and projects in our community.  Legacy accepts a wide variety of assets and can facilitate complex forms of giving while offering maximum tax advantages.  We can also partner with your professional advisors.  Let us get to know you, manage the details and help you achieve your charitable purpose!  Through Legacy, donors generously gave over $657,000 in 2022.

Legacy focuses on stewardships of your gifts.  The foundation multiplies the impact of your donation by pooling your giving with other gifts and grants.  Legacy leverages "buying power" to earn investment income, enabling a gift to make a greater impact than it could on its own.  In 2022, Legacy assets were over $9.1 million.
