Legacy & Planned Giving

“Make a Difference in the Lives that Follow”

What is Legacy Giving?

Legacy Giving is when you leave a gift through your will or another planned giving vehicle to a charity or cause that is meaningful to you. It is choosing to leave a gift from the heart that brings meaning, dignity and purpose to a life well lived; an enduring example for your children and grandchildren. Your gift is your opportunity to participate in the long term sustainable ministry of YFC. It also represents a way to facilitate the tax implications that come with the transfer of one’s estate to surviving relatives. By putting YFC in your will or making bequests and other “planned gifts,” you can continue to help making an important difference in the lives of young people in your community.
