Leave a Legacy month, marked in May, is traditionally a time when non-profits encourage their donors to leave a gift in their will, but doing this isn’t the only way to help grow your legacy. London Community Foundation encourages sustainable, forward-thinking philanthropy, and part of that means thinking about the legacy of your fund.
Donors who make a bequest to the Foundation or give a gift of life insurance become members of the Lorraine Ivey Shuttleworth Society(link to specific section in Legacy & Estate Planning) named after a philanthropist who embodied the spirit of building community by being forward-thinking.
