One Donor's Story 
The Donors
A Midwest couple had reached retirement and were interested in using some of their wealth to benefit multiple organizations following their deaths. They were also aware that the charities in need are not always the ones to receive the necessary funds.
Their Gift
They created a fund to benefit some of their favorite charities and the LCF Community Fund.
Their gift to the LCF Community Fund was combined with other donor gifts to provide relief to earthquake victims in India and to replenish food shelves at LSS of Metropolitan New York’s food pantry immediately following the tragedy on Sept. 11, 2001.
