The National AIDS Memorial is thankful for the many transformational planned gifts it has received over the years from donors, board of directors, staff, and friends through their estate plans.
These legacy gifts have supported storytelling, capital projects, student activist scholarships, and of course, the preservation of the AIDS Memorial Quilt and stewardship of the National AIDS Memorial Grove.
These legacy gifts come to the National AIDS Memorial mainly via bequests or as life-income gifts. With thoughtful planning, a planned gift can carry on your legacy through perpetuity, ensuring that the National AIDS Memorial continues its mission and work into the future so that remembrance does not fade, and that the movement for health equity, dignity, and social justice continues.
