Legacy Giving Program
I’ve helped (meaning exactly that: “helped”; takes a village and a cooperative board and some investment) generate extraordinary returns in legacy-giving for a VA community foundation — not because we were brilliant ... but because we tested and obeyed every rule we could lay hands on.
Results? After 10 years the Legacy Society grew from 72 members to more than 260. The average gift size is $1.3 million and we’re adding 18–25 news Legacy Society members each year.
