Named for the man who created the community foundation with a bequest in his will, the Edwin C. Shaw Society celebrates those who have named Akron Community Foundation in a planned gift, such as a bequest, charitable gift annuity or life insurance policy.

Your membership in the Edwin C. Shaw Society comes with no cost, obligations or solicitations. Instead, it offers you several key benefits:

  • By notifying the community foundation of your charitable plans during your lifetime, we can be certain that the funds will be used according to your wishes.
  • Your planned gift can be recognized both now and later, or it can remain anonymous if you prefer.
  • Membership includes invitations to special events and the opportunity to meet other like-minded givers.

It's simple to join. Just contact Laura Lederer and note that you have named the foundation in a planned gift.
