legacy society
DuPage Foundation’s Legacy Society honors those generous, forward-thinking donors who have made a commitment to secure DuPage County’s future by including the Foundation in their estate plans. These planned gifts can do something truly transformative in the community and for the causes they love most.
You can create a lasting legacy by utilizing a will, living trust, charitable remainder trust, charitable gift annuity, insurance policy or qualified retirement plan. DuPage Foundation's role is to receive, administer, and provide ongoing stewardship of your planned gift to ensure your intentions are honored.
In May 2021, DuPage Foundation began a partnership with the Daily Herald newspaper to bring you "Leaders & Legacies: Stories of Local Impact." This recurring series will highlight the inspiring stories of local individuals, families and businesses that have made or are making a lasting impact for our community through their generosity and leadership.
In case you missed it, the Daily Herald has made links to the series’ articles open and free (no log in needed to read it on the Daily Herald's website). See all of the articles here.
Everyone can create a legacy for their community and favorite causes through DuPage Foundation. Contact us today to learn more, or check out these pages on our website:
