The Legacy Society recognizes donors who have chosen to include the Upper Arlington Community Foundation in their wills, trusts, retirement accounts, or insurance policies. Planned gifts from Legacy Society members help the financial strength of the UACF and provide a way for individuals to guarantee their own legacy to our community.

Your bequest will help us grow and further the Upper Arlington Community Foundation’s mission to enhance the quality of life in UA by enriching traditions and supporting innovation through leadership and giving.

Those who establish a planned gift of any size play a key role in securing the Upper Arlington Community Foundation’s future and are recognized by The Legacy Society. These donors have remembered the UACF with a lifetime income gift or as a beneficiary of a will, trust, retirement plan, or life insurance policy.

Benefits of joining our Legacy Society include:

  • A relationship with the Foundation and other donors during your lifetime.

  • A role in determining how your legacy gift will be used.

  • Satisfaction in knowing your legacy will make a difference for your community.

  • Recognition on UACF donor wall located in the Municipal Services Center

  • Special recognition in newsletters, annual reports and our website, unless anonymity is desired.

  • Invitation to special donor events.

  • Some planned gifts can reduce your tax burden during your lifetime, such as gifts of securities donated in-kind.

    If you've already included the Community Foundation in your will, we encourage you to let us know so that we may honor you as a member of the Legacy Society.

    Legacy Society members share a dedication to Upper Arlington – but every act of giving is personal and unique and we are grateful for the trust you place in the Upper Arlington Community Foundation.
