Every Boys & Girls Club, large or small, can acquire planned gift commitments for their Club. A vital component of your Club’s planned giving program will be to establish a Heritage Club.

The Heritage Club is a national deferred giving society used to recognize individuals who have included a Boys & Girls Club in their estate plans through a will, beneficiary designation or other deferred giving technique. Marketing materials, pins, plaques and a national Heritage Club annual report are available through BGCA. Clubs that already have a recognition society are encouraged to identify this group as their “founding members” of The Heritage Club so that they can take full advantage of the national recognition available to their donors.
