Your Legacy Team

You should feel free to ask anyone at Young America's Foundation for more information about legacy giving. Kimberly Martin Begg and Ron Robinson may be especially helpful.

They are both attorneys and members of the Ranch In The Sky Legacy Society. Although they do not seek to be your legal representatives, their experience at Young America's Foundation can help you pass on your ideas. Kimberly is an alumna of the Foundation's programs and Ron has been president of Young America's Foundation for 25 years.
