Legacy Giving
Leave a planned gift in your will
Gifts by will are one of the ASI Food Pantry’s most important sources of support. Unrestricted gifts give us the greatest flexibility to use funds where they are most needed.
You may leave:
- A stated dollar amount
- A percentage of your residual estate (what remains after gifts to loved ones and expenses have been paid), or
- A specific asset, such as securities or other marketable property
