Begin Planning Your Legacy

Legacy Society

The Legacy Society honors those individuals and families that have chosen to include the Foundation in their estate plans or in a planned gift arrangement. Their generosity will not only benefit future generations but will also help build awareness of what is possible through charitable giving vehicles. Gifts received through an individual's planned giving instrument help build our endowment, assuring a strong and sustaining future for the community.  

If you have included the Nevada Community Foundation in your estate plans, please let us know so that we may acknowledge and thank you.
