Legacy Giving

Your Legacy Ensures Their Future

At Spring Farm CARES, we put as much care and attention into your legacy gift as we do to the care of our animals. We make sure that your legacy will have the greatest impact over the longest period of time. 

Spring Farm CARES was founded with the ideal that the organization would go on for generations to come. Our long-term planning takes into consideration the expected life-spans of the various species of animals in our sanctuary. Our nature sanctuary includes a 100-year plan. Legacy gifts enable us to ensure the future of the animals who we have committed to helping for their lifetimes.

Our Guiding Principle

A Lifetime Commitment

When an animal walks in our doors, we are making a lifetime commitment for their care. This requires years and decades of planning. Your legacy goes well into the future for their continued care. Spring Farm CARES plans to be here for generations to come. Our legacy donors make that a reality.

Here are the anticipated life-spans of our animal residents (based on actual ages that we have had here on the farm.)
Cats and Dogs - 20 Years
0%
Horses - 40 Years
0%
Donkeys - 50 Years
0%
Goats & Sheep - 15 Years
0%

0%

We need to plan for their care with increasing medical costs as they age. When any animal enters the sanctuary, we are responsible for their care for years to come. Your legacy gift ensures their future as well as the future of our mission.

We maintain an endowment fund to help secure the lives of the animals in our care well into the future and to keep the Spring Farm CARES mission moving forward for generations to come. You are a part of that future and your legacy can live on in countless ways.

We urge you to contact your financial advisor and attorney for guidance and information on setting things up for you properly.
