Legacy Society
The Arc Baltimore seeks to acknowledge those who make the ultimate demonstration of commitment to The Arc's long-term health and viability by including the organization in their Wills, Trusts, or beneficiary designations. For this purpose, a Legacy Society will list those individuals and families who have already made a bequest or other form of estate gift — or those who have pledged to do so and have made a provision in their estate plans for such a gift.
The Arc Baltimore's Endowment
The Arc Baltimore established an endowment fund in 2004 for the purpose of creating a permanent legacy that would serve the organization in perpetuity. The Board of Directors directed that when the fund reached $1 million, the Board could begin to use earnings to either contribute to special one-time uses to benefit people receiving services, to existing programs, to establish new programs, or to relieve matters of crisis.
Most recently, the Board approved $130,000 for FY23 to support a variety of initiatives including: landscaping of Arc homes and patio/deck furniture purchases, emergency assistance to families through the Family Fund, memberships at Baltimore area attractions for outings from centers, inner harbor cruises for adults supported by The Arc, start-up for a new family support group, holiday decorations for Arc supported homes, outreach videos, and much more.
The Arc's Endowment Fund is an investment in The Arc Baltimore's future and all the men, women, children, and families we will be here to support in years to come.
