Heritage Club
Members of the Heritage Club provide an inspiring legacy of support to the Ridgewood YMCA through their donations and charitable gift plans. Individuals, corporations and foundations are welcomed into the Heritage Club by donating directly to the Endowment Fund or upon informing the Ridgewood YMCA that provisions have been made to include the YMCA as part of their estate planning.

Donations to the Endowment Fund ensure the future of the Ridgewood YMCA, its Oak Street Branch and YMCA Camp Bernie. Be sure to consult your legal and financial professionals when drafting wills or other estate plans.

Ways to donate to the Endowment Fund and become a member of the Heritage Club include:

• Make an outright gift of cash, securities, property or other marketable assets
• Name the Ridgewood YMCA to receive a bequest in your will
• Name the Ridgewood YMCA as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy
• Name the Ridgewood YMCA as the recipient of your retirement plan benefits
• Create a charitable trust, gift annuity, or life estate program (be sure to consult your legal and financial professionals)

Please contact Lew Dickinson in the Development Office at (201) 444-5600, ext. 324 for more information regarding the Heritage Club.
