Members of the 1854 Society have made planned gifts and outright contributions to the YMCA's endowment funds. Members have either included the YMCA in their estate plans through a bequest or other planned gifts, or made a direct contribution to the YMCA's endowment fund. These YMCA supporters believe in the YMCA's mission and, through their gifts, ensure that high quality YMCA services and programs are available for future generations. It is through their endowment and planned gifts that the YMCA will continue to flourish and provide needed services for our children, our youth and our families for generations to come.

If you are thinking about your estate plans and wish to include the YMCA in those plans, please call Nancy Trego, Senior Vice President Financial Development, at (804) 649-9622.
