Memorial Gifts

Special funds can be created to handle tributes and memorials. Contributions may also be made to existing funds in order to:
  • honor a living person
  • memorialize deceased persons
  • commemorate anniversaries or other special events

Donors can use this giving option to:

  • create a scholarship fund acknowledging the contributions of a retiring teacher
  • engage a civic group in creating an emergency relief fund for a disaster
  • support the favorite charities of a couple celebrating their 50th anniversary
  • create a youth program that keeps the memory of a deceased child
  • your idea here.
