Legacy League

A Gift That Lasts Beyond a Lifetime

Become a permanent part of AAWL’s story and movement towards a more compassionate Arizona through planned giving.

Why Join the Legacy League

The Legacy League is a community of dedicated partners who have chosen to invest in AAWL’s mission through planned giving. Becoming part of the Legacy League is one of the most powerful ways to extend your impact by ensuring that the work of keeping pet families together and giving animals a second chance continues long after today.

Your legacy gift helps:

  • Sustain lifesaving medical care and behavioral support for animals in our community
  • Fund the community programs that keep pet families together when barriers get in the way
  • Ensure every animal receives the time, care and support they need to find their family

And perhaps most importantly, it reflects your belief that every animal and every family deserves compassion, support, and a second chance.

Ways to Invest in Our Future Together

There are several meaningful ways to include AAWL in your long-term plans:

  • Include a gift in your will or living trust
  • Name AAWL as a beneficiary of a retirement account or life insurance policy
  • Establish a charitable trust

These options are flexible and can be tailored to your personal and financial goals. We’d love to guide you through the options and find the approach that feels right for you.
