Providing quality education through hands-on experience with nature |
Home | Legacy Gifts for ENC
What will you leave for future generations to develop an appreciation for nature? By making a charitable bequest to the Environmental Nature Center in your will or estate plan you will enable the ENC to provide hands-on experiences with nature for our future generations. The ENC's estate and gift planning program was established as a tool to build the ENC's endowment fund as seeds for future growth and financial stability.
