Conservation Circle (Legacy Giving)
Some people choose to make a more significant commitment to our work through their will or with a gift of assets.
Beulah Drake's bequest to the foundation was transformative. The Fiske family's donation provides perpetual support to projects within the Deschutes River basin.
If you are considering one of the following ways to leave a legacy for Oregon and would like further information, please get in touch with us about making a planned gift to OWF.
The following are just a few ways to support the Oregon Wildlife Foundation with a planned gift. Consult your tax advisor or estate planning professional before making any planned gift to ensure that you’ll receive the maximum tax benefit. If you already know that you want to designate OWF as a beneficiary in your will, life insurance, retirement plan, or other charitable vehicle, view our legal/tax accounting information here.

To help you get started on your plans and legacy, you can use FreeWill, an online tool that guides you through the process of creating your will or trust. It’s easy to use, accessible online, and can be completed in 20 minutes. You can use this resource on its own, or to document your wishes before finalizing your plans with an attorney.
Have you already included a gift in your will or trust? Please fill out this form to let us know! We would love to thank you for your generosity.

Do you have an IRA, 401(k), life-insurance policy, or any other assets not included in your will? If so, these are called non-probate assets and you must plan your beneficiaries for them separately. Use this online tool to make your plans and designate us as a beneficiary of one or more of these assets.
