Securing the future for generations to come

“Thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations.” – Isaiah 58:12

Seacrest Foundation has many years’ experience in helping to structure planned gifts that fulfill charitable, financial and estate planning goals. We share with you the opportunity to be a part of our planned giving program, the “Legacy of Promise.” Your legacy will ensure that funds are available for Seacrest Village residents to have a warm and loving home for generations to come, or for Seacrest at Home clients to receive needed services in their homes even when resources are limited. There is a great need now, and an even greater need on the horizon. By 2030 the number of people aged 60 and older in San Diego County will increase by 130%.    

By including Seacrest Foundation in your estate planning, you join a dedicated community of supporters united in securing the future of Seacrest for generations to come.    

You’ll be part of our Legacy of Promise program—a Legacy from you and a Promise from Seacrest Foundation to always help Seacrest meet the needs of the most vulnerable among us. Every planned gift has the power to impact the lives of countless residents and clients. You’ll also receive an invitation to an elegant appreciation dinner and other special events.  

Outstanding opportunities to save on taxes, enhance income or protect assets are available. For questions or more information, please contact Robin Israel, Chief Foundation Officer at risrael@seacrestfoundation.org or call (760) 632-0081 so that we may assist you in meeting your goals.
