Planned Gifts are contributions made typically through an estate or trust as a part of a bequest or other form of financial planning. Friends of the Food Bank who have communicated to us that they are leaving a gift to our organization in their will, estate, trust, or other type of deferred gift are part of the Fraenkel Society – Feeding the Future.
