The Legacy Leaders Circle
The Heart of the Civil War Heritage Area is looking to the future with the establishment of the Legacy Leaders Circle. Past presidents Kristen McMasters and Dennis Frye are the founding members of this group, bringing together those who wish to strengthen their commitment to the Heart of the Civil War Heritage Area mission in their estate planning.
Membership in the Legacy Leaders Circle is extended to those who express commitment to the Heart of the Civil War Heritage Area (HCWHA) by naming HCWHA as the beneficiary of a planned gift. Benefits include invitations to special events and tours, a certificate of membership, and recognition in newsletters, on our website, and on a Legacy Leaders Circle display at the HCWHA headquarters.
If you are considering a planned gift, the following resources may be helpful.
When you are ready to become a part of the Legacy Leaders Circle, we ask that you complete a Confidential Bequest Intention Form, which is included in this brochure.
Our Executive Director, Liz Shatto, would be happy to discuss planned giving options with you.
