Planned Giving
Planned giving is an opportunity to leave a lasting legacy that supports the Friends mission well into the future. Our Friends Legacy Circle recognizes and honors donors who include the Friends in their wills, trusts, or estate plans. Legacy Circle donors are recognized on a permanent donor recognition wall in the Schmeeckle visitor center.
Planned gifts can be in the form of a bequest, life insurance, retirement plan, charitable remainder trust, or appreciated assets. Gifts are invested in the Friends of Schmeeckle Endowment Fund, unless otherwise specified by the donor. The fund earns interest in perpetuity to support enhancement projects and programming at Schmeeckle Reserve.
