It is a special type of person who provides for the future of his or her community. Composed of individuals who have made plans to leave a gift to the Central Pennsylvania Community Foundation, members of the Legacy Society have that special satisfaction that comes with knowing that they have helped make this corner of the world a little better. Or, more simply put, that their life’s efforts will continue to make a difference.
Legacy Society members may designate the use of the distributions from their future gifts, or may leave the distributions to the discretion of the Grants Committee. A Legacy Society gift maybe used to establish a new Named Fund or may be added to any of the Foundation’s existing funds.
There are many not-for-profit organizations worthy of consideration and support, but the “ultimate philanthropy” is the Foundation itself. Gifts supporting the Foundation will ensure our ability to create a better future for all of us.
