Planned giving provides donors the opportunity to make a significant contribution to support Butler while still meeting personal estate and tax-planning goals. By engaging in planned giving you might actually increase the wealth of your estate.

You can make your wishes known using our Declaration of Intent

Those who have named Butler to receive some form of planned gift are recognized in our Circle of the Gold Society. Donors are invited to a special recognition luncheon every spring.
