Leave a Legacy of a Stronger, Healthier Community

August is National Make-A-Will Month—an ideal time to reflect on the legacy you want to leave behind. At Healthy Acadia, we invite you to consider shaping a lasting impact by joining our Healthy Legacy Giving Community.

A legacy gift to Healthy Acadia can help ensure that individuals and families across our region continue to have access to vital community health resources for generations to come. One of the simplest and most powerful ways to do this is by including Healthy Acadia in your will, trust, or estate plans. You can also name us as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy, retirement plan, bank account, or other financial asset. No matter the size, your planned gift will make a meaningful difference.

Your bequest can:

  • Promote health equity

  • Support prevention and recovery programs

  • Advance food security, youth engagement, and chronic disease prevention

  • Empower local communities with resources for long-term wellbeing

Planned giving is deeply personal, and we are here to help you create a strategy that reflects your values and goals. Whether you’re beginning your estate planning or updating an existing will, we welcome the opportunity to talk with you about ways your legacy can promote lasting health for future generations.
