  • When the donor submits a letter of commitment to the Foundation, she/he becomes a member of our planned giving program. There is no legal form to fill out, no declaration of what the gift is, no copy of the bequest is required. The Foundation will send the donor a letter of acknowledgement.

  • Upon receiving a letter of commitment, the donor will be recognized as a member of the Legacy Partnership in the Annual Report and have other benefits as a member of the Legacy Society. A donor may, of course, choose to remain anonymous.

  • The Foundation is extremely grateful for the generosity and thoughtful planning of these donors for helping to ensure a bright future for our beautiful Japanese Garden.
