powerful testimonies
Our stories are powerful testimonies of who we are, what we value and more importantly where we hope to go. By sharing our stories with one another we build community and find we are more alike than we are different.
We invite you to pull up a chair and sit beside us as we listen to Sartori Circle members share what inspired them to use their personal legacy to create lasting change. Sartori Circle members are donors who generously include CCF in their estate plans through their will, trust, beneficiary designations, life income gifts or who name CCF as the successor advisor to their existing Donor Advised Funds.
By becoming a member of the Sartori Circle, you join a group of forward-thinking individuals and families who use their charitable resources to support the causes and organizations they care about most – well beyond their lifetimes.
