Legacy Circle

Including the Arizona Humane Society in your final giving plans allows you to enjoy the benefits of a gift to charity while making a powerful statement about your love of animals. Remembering AHS in your will, trust or other estate plans ensures our ability to help thousands of animals annually through our low-cost, high quality programs, rescues and clinics. These thoughtful gifts influence others to remember AHS, as well.

• Naming AHS as a beneficiary in a will or living trust
• Naming AHS as the beneficiary of a paid life insurance policy or individual retirement account (IRA)
• Paid on Death beneficiary designations on bank accounts and Charitable Beneficiary Deeds
• Making a gift of cash or appreciated securities to establish a charitable gift annuity
• Creating a charitable remainder trust (CRT) which provides you with income for the term of the trust

AHS has a special way to thank legacy donors while they are living. Legacy Circle is our way of recognizing those whose planned gifts ensure a healthy financial future for us and the homeless pets in our care.

Benefits of membership include name recognition on the AHS Legacy Circle wall located at our Nina Mason Pulliam South Mountain Campus, an invitation to our annual donor recognition event and eligibility to enroll your pets at no cost in our Continuing Care program. Pets enrolled in Continuing Care are placed with new families should their pet parent precede them in death.
