Legacy Circle

 

When you name the Humane Society of Kent County in your will, or make another kind of planned gift* to the Humane Society, you become a member of our Legacy Circle.  Members of this special group of donors have at least one thing in common:  a commitment to the future care and protection of animals in our community.

 

As a member of the Humane Society of Kent County Legacy Circle, you will be invited to special receptions and other events designed especially for our forward-looking supporters.  You will also receive a certificate for framing, a complementary copy of our annual Pet of the Month Calendar, and regular updates and reports about the humane society.  You will also receive our sincere gratitude and recognition for your significant commitment to our mission.

 

The Humane Society of Kent County Legacy Circle was established in 2000.  The name reflects our appreciation and admiration for those who had the vision to launch this humane society in 1883.  And it is this ongoing vision for the future that marks those who belong to the Legacy Circle today.
