Legacy Giving

Asia Foundation Legacy Society

Welcome

At The Asia Foundation, we are immensely grateful for the support of our dedicated donors who share our commitment to fostering positive change across Asia and the Pacific. If you’ve made or are considering a legacy gift to The Asia Foundation, we invite you to become a valued member of our Asia Foundation Legacy Society.

About the Legacy Society

The Asia Foundation Legacy Society is an esteemed community of individuals who have contributed or planned to give funds from their estates. These visionary donors play a pivotal role in expanding our income-generating funds, providing enduring support for the Foundation’s transformative programs.

Empowering Change Through Endowment

The critical funds contributed by Legacy Society members collectively form The Asia Foundation’s Endowment Fund. This fund, established through the leadership and generosity of select trustees, volunteers, donors, and staff, empowers the Foundation with the flexibility to innovate new programs and sustain life-enriching initiatives, especially during economic downturns when our work is most critical.

Building a legacy

Legacy gifts can take various forms, allowing you to choose the method that best aligns with your values and financial goals. Whether through your will, trust, retirement plan, insurance policy, real property, or other assets, your gift makes a profound difference. Not only do legacy gifts offer potential estate tax benefits, but some may also provide income, offering a unique opportunity to support The Asia Foundation’s mission while securing your financial future.

Join the Legacy Society

Please join us in creating a legacy of positive change in Asia. Your thoughtful planning and generosity today will echo through generations, reminding the world that change begins with individuals like you.
