Planned Giving
Plan a future that inspires hope.
Planned gifts help advance clinical innovation, support donor and recipient families, and strengthen public awareness and education— sustaining the programs and services that honor donor heroes, support families, and educate our communities.
These gifts also help grow the Foundation’s endowment (link to endowment), providing long-term resources that ensure our mission remains strong for years to come.
It is in giving that we receive and I am so proud to contribute to the Sharing Network Foundation Planned Giving program. I want to honor my son Connor’s legacy of giving back and paying it forward.
Connor would say: “Be the power to many and always do good”.
