About Us

In 1998 the National Committee on Planned Giving launched LEAVE A LEGACY, a public awareness campaign, to increase the quantity of charitable legacy giving across North America. Over 90 LEAVE A LEGACY programs were established in communities across the United States and Canada. The LEAVE A LEGACY campaign did not solicit gifts for any particular organization. Instead, the program was a partnership to help promote the message that all of us have the ability to “Make a difference in the lives that follow” by leaving a charitable legacy.

Our Mission

LEAVE A LEGACY® Charlotte Region, like the national organization, does not promote any specific charity or cause. The program encourages prospective donors to work with the professional staff and volunteers of the charities that they already support, or the advisors with whom they have a relationship, to establish a charitable bequest or planned gift. The program is a collaborative effort among local nonprofit organizations, foundations, estate planning professionals, and corporate sponsors.
