LEAVING YOUR LEGACY

Leaving a legacy gift is one of the most meaningful ways you can help to ensure the YMCA’s presence in the community for generations to come. Legacy gifts represent an individual’s long-lasting commitment to the Y, its mission, and our community. These generous individuals are recognized as members of the Greater Joliet Area YMCA’s Heritage Club.

The Heritage Club is an association of friends of the Greater Joliet Area YMCA from across Will and Grundy Counties. Like you, these people seek to ensure that the future needs of our community are met by including the Greater Joliet Area YMCA in their estate plans. This planning might include a will, charitable gift annuity, a trust arrangement, a real estate gift, a life insurance policy, or an outright cash gift of a personally meaningful amount to the Endowment Fund, typically $2,500 or more.
