At Austin Community Foundation, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to make a lasting impact—right here at home. When it comes to planning your legacy, the Foundation offers a unique and meaningful way to shape a philanthropic future that reflects your values and supports the community you love.
Creating or updating your will may seem like a daunting task, but it can be one of the most rewarding things you do. By including charitable gifts in your will, you ensure that the causes you care about—whether it’s education, the environment, social justice, or the arts—receive support long after you’re gone. By working with ACF, your giving stays local, strategic, and aligned with your wishes.
One of the greatest advantages of partnering with Austin Community Foundation is the flexibility we offer. Life changes, and your philanthropic intentions may evolve over time. By using specific language provided by ACF in your will or trust, you can easily adjust your plan at any point—without needing to revise your legal documents. A simple call to the Foundation is all it takes to adjust how your future gifts will be used, giving you lasting control and peace of mind.
If we haven’t had the pleasure of meeting yet, I’m Arthur Brewer, Senior Gift Planning Officer at ACF. My role is to guide you through the process of legacy giving, using my deep experience in charitable estate planning and passion for connecting donors with meaningful opportunities. There’s something powerful about knowing your gift will strengthen the Austin community long after you’re gone, and I strive to make this journey as simple and personal as possible for you.
With Austin Community Foundation, legacy planning becomes more than paperwork—it is a promise to your community.
