As we celebrate National Estate Planning Awareness Week from October 20-26, we invite you to consider the lasting impact you can have on Bernheim Forest and Arboretum. Imagine the joy and wonder in a child’s eyes as they explore the Playcosystem, discovering the beauty of nature and creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Including Bernheim in your will is a powerful way to ensure that future generations can continue to connect with nature, experience the wonder of our natural world, and benefit from our conservation efforts.
If you have already included Bernheim in your will, we would love to hear from you! Your commitment helps us plan for the future and inspires others to consider this meaningful way of giving. Please let us know by contacting our advancement office at (502) 955-8512 or advancement@bernheim.org.
To learn more about the impact of planned giving, visit https://bernheim.org/the-echo-society/. The Echo Society honors those who have made a commitment to Bernheim through their estate plans. The original planned gift that established Bernheim Forest came from the visionary Isaac W. Bernheim, who donated the land and funds to create a place where people could connect with nature and find peace and inspiration. His legacy continues to inspire us all.
We also invite you to share your stories about what Bernheim means to you and why you chose to include us in your will. Your stories can inspire others and help us build a community of supporters who are passionate about preserving the beauty and wonder of Bernheim for years to come.
Thank you for your continued support and dedication to preserving the beauty and wonder of Bernheim for years to come.
