Leave a Legacy

A legacy is something that lives on beyond our short time on earth. Your legacy could save countless cats now, tomorrow and for years to come.

Cats like Vander. He came to us as a kitten who'd been sorely mistreated by two little boys but many years later and he has stolen our hearts. And a spot in the women's restroom. Thanks to generous donors who made plans for the future of the Hermitage, Vander and the many cats like him, will always find sanctuary at the Hermitage.

Planned Giving allows you to support The Hermitage by naming us as a beneficiary in your will, trust. or family foundation. There are even Planned Gifts that may provide you with a tax benefit; gifts of stock, donations from an IRA, and distributions from other funds. The Hermitage also has a fund at The Community Foundation of Southern Arizona, where gifts can be made.

If you plan to leave a legacy gift to The Hermitage upon your passing, you are eligible to join our legacy society, Clover's Circle. Please fill out this Letter of Intent OR contact our Development & Communication Coordinator if you're interested in being named in Clover's Circle.

Continuing Cat Care is a program to give you peace of mind about your kitties' futures should there come a time when you are no longer able to care for them. Please read more about this program to decide if it is a good fit for you!

Is there a beloved pet or human you'd like to memorialize? Purchase a customized clay brick, bench or limited edition hummingbird to be installed in the Remembrance Garden in front of the Hermitage.
