All Pennsylvanians are encouraged to take the pledge and leave at least 5% of their estates to perpetually benefit chartable causes in the communities they call home. These estate planning commitments can be made after discussions with your personal professional advisors, the community foundation serving your region or with other nonprofit organizations you care about.
There is no requirement that your pledge be made public and no documentation is required. We do know, however, that public commitments can encourage others to give. Should you wish to make your commitment public, you are encouraged to contact the Crawford Heritage Community Foundation serving your area or another trusted nonprofit organization of your choosing.
On behalf of future generations of Pennsylvanians, we thank you for your foresight and thoughtful philanthropic planning.
