Legacy Fund Program

The American Association of Swine Veterinarians (AASV) Foundation Legacy Fund provides an opportunity to recognize a principal donor, veterinary practice, or honoree through an endowed contribution of $50,000 or more to the AASV Foundation. The fund may be named after the donor, practice, or other individual or group. Additionally, the donor(s) may designate which of three AASV Foundation mission categories will be supported by the proceeds from the fund: 1) research, 2) education, or 3) long-term issues. As an endowed giving program, Legacy Fund contributions are invested to generate income in the form of interest, dividends, and capital gains. The income is used to fund foundation activities in the specified mission category, while the original contribution is conserved, helping to assure the organization’s long-term stability and success. Contributions to the Legacy program are therefore limited to cash and/or cash equivalents. The Legacy Fund represents the highest level of the foundation’s triad of endowed giving programs (Leman-Heritage-Legacy).

Establish a Legacy Fund:

  1. As an individual, veterinary practice, or group of donors, make a contribution of $50,000 or more to the AASV Foundation.
  2. Complete and submit the Legacy Fund form to specify details regarding your gift.
