Planned Giving

A LEGACY OF CARING

How a Planned Gift Can Work for You

Be remembered for the way you lived, what you cared about and the people you loved.

Your Planned Gift will:
*Serve as a personal legacy

*Ensure we can provide a safe, secure environment for those unable to help themselves – now and into the future

Your Planned Gift ensures that 50 years from now Employment & Community Options will still be around to provide a safe, secure environment for individuals with developmental disabilities. “Your helping hand insures future options for Employment & Community Options”
