Planned Giving Testimonials

Steve Davis, Donor

Steve Davis | Donor

“My career put me in a position to be able to help others. From my involvement at the Campus as a board member to fundraising and now volunteering, adding a provision to my trust for Keys to Change helps complete my philanthropic giving. It allows me to continue to help end homelessness and share my blessings long after I’m gone.”

Rima McIntire, Donor

Rima McIntire | Donor

“I want my legacy to reflect my deep belief in the power of community. In my estate planning, I’ve set up a fund that grows each year, and when I pass, the proceeds will go directly to Keys to Change. Supporting their mission to end homelessness is my way of standing with those who are struggling.”

Myron Hammes, Donor

Myron Hammes | Donor

“It’s simple – I believe homelessness is solvable. Including Keys to Change as a beneficiary of my life insurance policy was easy to do. It’s also a flexible option – I can call the insurance company to make changes whenever I need to. Solving homelessness takes hard work – supporting that work is simple with Keys to Change.”

Jim Davis, Donor

Jim Davis | Donor

“My advice? Don’t wait. I hadn’t prioritized estate planning until a near-death boating accident gave me a major wake-up call. Now I sleep well knowing that my family will be provided for once I’m gone, and that my passion for volunteering with the unhoused community will live on through my bequest to Keys to Change.”
