Planned Giving

One of the most important things you can do for yourself and those you care about is to plan your legacy thoughtfully. No matter your net worth, a current will and other estate planning documents are key to providing security for you and your family’s future.

Making a legacy gift in your will is a simple way to give to LDI with a lasting impact. The process is easy: you can designate a specific dollar amount, a particular asset, or a fixed percentage of your entire estate after providing for your loved ones. No matter what you choose, your legacy gift will support Leadership Delaware’s mission, ensuring that we can continue to guarantee that Delaware has strong and diverse leadership now and into the future.

We hope that you will join many other lifetime donors who have decided to follow in the footsteps of the late Governor Pete Du Pont by continuing to support our mission through a legacy gift. 

Membership in the Governor Pete du Pont Legacy Society is extended to all individuals and their significant others who have:

• Included LDI as a beneficiary in a will or living trust; or
• Named LDI as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy, retirement plan, or charitable trust; or
• Set up an endowment to support the LDI in perpetuity; or
• Publicly traded stock and mutual fund shares; or
• Have personally donated over $20,000 to LDI

If you have already included Leadership Delaware in your legacy plans, we would like to have the opportunity to thank you for your generosity and to invite you to join the Legacy Society. If you prefer to remain anonymous, be assured that we will honor your wishes and respect the confidential nature of your gift.
