Legacy and Planned Giving
Legacy Giving allows you to continue making a significant impact on the community and issues you care about most, beyond your lifetime.
Making a planned gift to US Women’s Rugby Foundation (USWRF), through your estate, is one of the most effective ways to ensure we can carry on our shared vision of fostering and sustaining the growth of girls’ and women’s rugby in the United States. When you decide to make an estate gift to USWRF, you will leave a legacy to help preserve and build the women’s rugby community. An estate gift may also allow you and your family to receive important financial and tax benefits.
There are many ways to make a planned gift that will ensure more girls and women have access to a lifetime of playing, leadership, and career opportunities through women’s rugby. As you consider which plan might work best for you and your family, we welcome the chance to meet with you and answer any questions you have.
