LEAVE A LEGACY™ is a community-based program to help people learn about charitable giving through a will or from an estate. LEAVE A LEGACY™ does NOT solicit gifts for any particular organization. Instead, the program is a cooperative effort of all types of nonprofit groups including social service and arts organizations, churches, hospitals, educational institutions and other philanthropic groups.   

More than 70% of Americans contribute to the nonprofit groups of their choice throughout their lifetimes. Only around 6% continue this support through a gift in their will or estate plan. By making these "planned gifts," you can continue to help organizations like Children's Home that are making an important difference in our community. When you LEAVE A LEGACY™, you make sure that help continues to be there for those who need it.   

The LEAVE A LEGACY™ Peoria Area program can direct you to resources that will help you to fulfill your charitable goals.  You can contact LEAVE A LEGACY™ by calling (309) 687-7150 or by visiting www.Peoria-AreaLAL.org on the internet.
