‡ In memoriam
The Asia Foundation established the Asia Foundation Legacy Society to recognize generous donors who have given or made plans to give funds from their estate to expand income-generating funds that provide long-lasting support for the Foundation’s programs. Together, these critical funds serve as The Asia Foundation’s Endowment Fund, established through the leadership and generosity of select trustees, volunteers, donors, and staff.
A robust Legacy Society provides the Foundation flexibility to pilot and innovate new programs, as well as to continue to deliver life-enriching programs during economic downturns when this work is most critical. By remembering The Asia Foundation in your estate planning, you reaffirm that change can only start with you.
