What is Legacy Giving?

Planned giving, also known as legacy giving, is a way for individuals to make a lasting impact through future-focused contributions that support the causes they care about most.

At its core, planned giving means committing today to support California CASA tomorrow through your will, trust, retirement account, life insurance policy, or other long-term financial plans. These gifts cost nothing during your lifetime, yet they can ensure that your values and generosity endure for generations to come.

Why consider a planned gift? Because it creates a lasting impact. Your support ensures that children in foster care across California have access to a trained, consistent Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA)—someone who listens, shows up, and helps guide them through complex systems and uncertain times.

YOUR LEGACY. YOUR FUTURE.

“
As part of their legacy, they always wanted to financially support the organizations they felt passionate about. Your organization, California CASA Association, is one of those beneficiaries. My parents understood your mission and wanted to support the incredible work that you do. My family is assured that this money will help you to continue to make this world a better, healthier place for all.
