Your legacy of kindness forever recognized as a member of our Legacy Society
When you make a gift in your will, trust, or other financial plans, you are recognized in a special group known as the Legacy Society. As a Legacy Society member, you will have the option of having Forsyth Humane Society provide for your canines and felines upon your passing, until a new forever home can be located for them through our adoption program.
Legacy Society members are acknowledged through recognition in our Annual Report, given a personal contact with Forsyth Humane Society, and receive updates about our organization.
The Legacy Society honors the members of our community who understand the positive effect animals have on our community and our lives. Members sustain our goal of increasing the save rate in Forsyth County for shelter cats and dogs to 90% by 2023. Including Forsyth Humane Society in your Will or Trust is a valuable source of support and we are grateful that you chose us.
