  • Your family members can be involved in continuing your philanthropic traditions.
  • You may be able to accomplish all of your charitable goals with a single gift.
  • Your gift will continue to make a difference locally, nationally and even internationally.

Even if you can’t make a gift today, you may be able to provide for a generous gift in the future. Whether you make a bequest or create a comprehensive estate planning strategy, we can help you create a planned gift that fits your interests and financial means.

With our, you can specify a gift to support what you’re passionate about, such as children or the arts.

We can also help you design a planned gift to support the causes and charities you care about most, after you’ve provided for the financial security of your loved ones.

The Legacy Society

The Legacy Society is a honor society for individuals who have made a gift to the community through their will or estate plan as a way to recognize this special form of lasting philanthropy  Making a gift is as easy as designating the Foundation as the beneficiary of an IRA or leaving a simple bequest. (For example: “I give [an amount of money, shares of stock, a percentage of my estate] to  Tahoe Truckee Community  Foundation.”

Involvement in the Legacy Society gives you the opportunity to enjoy the company of others, who like yourself, care about leaving a legacy to protect the and strengthen our beautiful  region.  You may always choose to remain anonymous in your philanthropy through the Foundation. However, participation in the Legacy Society can be an inspirational experience, and may encourage others to look toward the future and how they too may have an enduring impact on the causes they care about.

If you have made a gift to the Foundation, please let us know so we can recognize your generous contributions.  For more information, please contact Ann Pridgen, Director of Donor Engagement
