Heritage Circle
Become Part of Our Heritage Circle
The American Floral Endowment’s (AFE) Board of Directors is pleased to announce the establishment of the Heritage Circle – an honorary organization composed of persons who have made provision for a planned gift to AFE through a bequest, a life insurance policy, a trust or otherwise, such as a retirement plan beneficiary designation.
The establishment of the Heritage Circle affords AFE an opportunity to extend our warm appreciation to individuals who notify us of their thoughtful gift intentions. There are no dues or other obligations, but AFE members will receive special informational mailings. Also, if you are willing, your name will be listed with other Heritage Circle members in our newsletter.
While a significant number of persons have already made provision for a planned gift to AFE and are therefore eligible for Heritage Circle membership, the Society’s roll of founding members will be held open for 10 months so that others may be included as well.
If you have already arranged for a planned gift to benefit AFE, we welcome you into the Heritage Circle and count you among our founding members. If not, we invite you to consider a bequest or other arrangement. We would be pleased to send you further information and, if you wish, meet with you personally to explore the various options.
Your support can provide vital assistance to AFE in our efforts to fund research and scholarships that are so critical to the industry. We need your help – and we look forward to expressing our gratitude through the new Heritage Circle.
Sincerely yours,
Mike Mellano, Sr.
Chair, Board of Trustees
The American Floral Endowment
