The Greater Everett Community Foundation has established the Trust for Tomorrow to recognize people who are planning for gifts today that will provide significant benefits to our community in the future.  These gifts may take the form of bequests, charitable trusts, gifts of life insurance or gifts of retirement assets.

Trust for Tomorrow members may designate the use of the distributions from their future gifts, or may leave the distributions to the discretion of the Greater Everett Community Foundation's board of directors.  A Trust for Tomorrow gift may be used to extablish a new Named Fund (if the size requirements are met) or may be added to any of the Foundation's existing funds.  We do not ask how much is being left to the Foundation.  We invite you to leave a legacy of any size.

Sometimes such gifts go unrecognized because they come at the end of the donor's life.  The Trust for Tomorrow allows us the opportunity to thank donors during their lifetimes and acknowledge the generosity that will extend over generations.

The following individuals have included the Foundation in their estate plans.  We are honored that they have chosen to plan for the future of their community in this way.
