The Paul Clarke Legacy Society was established to recognize the generosity and vision of donors who have made a commitment to our community through the lasting impact of a planned gift. It is comprised of individuals who have made known their intent to create permanent funds at the Community Foundation of Greater Fort Wayne – either during their lifetimes or through estate planning.

Becoming a member of the Legacy Society is easy. By completing a statement of intent and notifying us of your gift through a bequest, a charitable trust, life insurance or other planned gift, you can become a member of the Paul Clarke Legacy Society and have the satisfaction of knowing that you are making a gift of a lifetime.

By entrusting gifts to the Community Foundation, donors can ensure that their contributions will be used wisely to address future community needs, and that their personal legacies will be extended far beyond their lifetimes. Other key benefits include:

• Naming your charitable fund. We encourage you to use your gift to honor the name of your family or loved ones. Or if you prefer, you may choose anonymity instead.
• Attending special events such as our annual Paul Clarke Legacy Society Luncheon. We will introduce you to other generous and forward thinking people who have also included our community in their estate plans.
• Receiving recognition in special Community Foundation publications.  We would like to give others the opportunity to follow your example of community stewardship and leadership.
