Mahogany Legacy Society

Create the Legacy You Want to Leave

The Mahogany Legacy Society recognizes donors investing in the community by naming the Community Foundation of the Virgin Islands (CFVI) as a beneficiary of their estate plans. Estate plan funds can benefit the territory in perpetuity, becoming a legacy for our community’s future. 

Why it’s important 

An estate plan allows you to plan for the future. You can create the legacy you want to leave, ensuring your family is protected well into the future. Without these documents, the laws of your state will determine how your assets are divided after your lifetime. This may leave out people and organizations that are important to you. 

Time for an update? 

If you have already created your estate plan, take time this year to make sure it is current, especially if you have experienced life events such as: 

  • A change in marital status for you or someone in your family 
  • A new child 
  • The loss of a loved one 
  • A move to a new state 
  • The desire to make an impact at organizations like CFVI in the future 

Six easy ways to include CFVI in your estate plan: 

1

Bequest 

2

A Retirement Plan or IRA 

3

Life Insurance Policies 

4

Donor-Advised Funds 

5

Savings Accounts

6

Certificates of Deposits

Make CFVI part of your legacy and create a lasting impact 

When you include a gift to CFVI in your estate plan, you ensure your legacy will continue to enrich the quality of life in the territory for future generations of Virgin Islands residents.
