Planned Giving

The SARC Legacy Society

What is SARC’s Legacy Society?

The Legacy Society honors those who have made a lasting commitment to survivors by including SARC in their estate plans.

Members of this special giving circle have chosen to ensure that the critical services SARC provides — crisis intervention, counseling, shelter, legal advocacy, and prevention education — will be there for future generations.

Their legacy is one of compassion, safety, and hope.

As a Legacy Society member, you’ll receive:

  • Recognition (if desired) in publications and events
