Donating now to impact the future

The Heritage Club offers donors the opportunity to make a future impact on our Club by identifying a gift in their estate plans. Donors making a planned gift of up to $5,000 - $9,000 are considered HK Whitney Club members. HK Whitney was a former Executive Director for 25 years before retiring in 1981. He was influential in establishing high-quality programs. Donors who provide a planed gift of more than $10,000 are honored on the Peter C. West memorial wall on the front of the Club building. Peter C. West was a Club Alum who served on the Board for over 20 years. He played a significant role in the construction and renovation of the Club facility that we now call home.
