It’s been described as “leaving the places you go and the people you meet a little better than you found them.” Isn’t that something we all want?

Whether it’s through the family you raise, the gardens you tend, the volunteer work you do, or the financial gifts you make – your legacy is an extension of your love through the hearts you’ve touched. Leaving a gift to RCCF after your lifetime allows you to touch the hearts of your community forever. That’s the advantage of an endowment. And that’s the beauty of paying it forward.

It doesn’t have to be complicated to make a legacy gift. It doesn’t have to be large, either. It can be a % of your estate or any amount you choose. It just has to be your heart’s desire. Learn more about legacy gift options and find sample language here, or contact Alisa Winters at (765) 938-1177, ext. 1 or awinters@rushcountyfoundation.org. She is happy to help with your charitable dreams.

As you celebrate Rush County’s Bicentennial and its last 200 years, it’s the perfect time to think about its future. Join the 1822 Society by making plans for a legacy gift to RCCF. Your legacy will last forever.
