Planned Giving

CREATE A LASTING LEGACY THAT IGNITES ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES.

A gift to VOBS through your will or another part of your estate plan enables you to create a lasting legacy of resilience and compassion.

We invite you to become part of our Kurt Hahn Society, a distinguished group of forward-thinking individuals committed to transformative education and building a bright, bold future. Named for the founder of Outward Bound, the Kurt Hahn Society includes those who create legacy gifts that will inspire and empower beyond their own lifetimes.

There are many ways to plan a legacy gift while also taking advantage of potential tax savings and maintaining flexibility if your circumstances change. Click the images below to explore the most common vehicles you might consider.

If you have already named VOBS in your estate plan, or to learn more about planned giving, please contact our Director of Development: stacey.minnick@vobs.org or (651) 401-0637.
