To end hunger in the Ozarks, we must invest in the next generation. One in 5 children and 1 in 6 adults face hunger in our community and ending that will take more than a single donation today.

Ozarks Food Harvest offers many opportunities for you to create a legacy of hope – one that ensures our mission continues for generations to come. Whether it’s through a bequest in your will, a charitable trust, or naming Ozarks Food Harvest as a beneficiary of your retirement account or life insurance, planned gifts are a powerful testament to your commitment to our work.

Your gift provides critical resources to continue our programs and initiatives. Planned gifts often allow you to make a more significant impact than you might have thought possible while
preserving your current financial security. Many planned giving options come with tax benefits for you and your heirs.

As always, we encourage you to consult with a CPA or financial adviser to help you design a plan that works best for you and figure out what benefits might be available. No matter how you choose to extend your giving, please know we will be honored by your long-term support of our mission. It will strengthen our community and help put meals on the table for children, families and seniors facing hunger in southwest Missouri.

To learn more about planned giving opportunities, please visit ozarksfoodharvest.org/planned-giving or call Cassie Hanson, director of development, at 417-865-3411. If you have already included Ozarks Food Harvest in your estate plans, please let us know so we can thank you and ensure your gift is used exactly as you intend.

Thank you for considering a legacy gift to Ozarks Food Harvest. Your generosity can shape our future and ensure our mission to Transform Hunger into Hope is secure for years to come.
