Legacy Society

The Legacy Society honors those individuals who have made a gift to the American Red Cross-Louisiana Capital Area Chapter in their estate plan.  Through their gifts, Legacy Society members demonstrate a foresight and generous commitment to the life-saving mission of the American Red Cross as well as ensure their legacy of goodwill and giving endures for future generations.  

We invite you to become a member of our Legacy Society by making a planned gift to the Capital Area Chapter. If you have already included the Chapter as a beneficiary in your will, life insurance policy, retirement plan or trust, please notify us. We realize that by making this special gift, you consider us to be part of your family, and we want to keep you informed as to how your gift will be used and provide the opportunity for you to express your wishes.

To recognize these special benefactors, the Legacy Society members will be listed, with their permission, on a special plaque in the Capital Area Chapter. Legacy Society members also will receive invitations to attend an annual recognition event with the CEO and other local leaders of the organization. Each member will also receive a Legacy Society Pin.
