Leave a Legacy for Our Future Trail

Each of us has chosen a trail through life. By becoming a Colorado Mountain Club member, you have made a choice that enhances your enjoyment of our state. You can also make a choice to help future generations of Club members. By creating a will or trust naming the CMC via the CMC Foundation as an heir or beneficiary ensures that you are able to make decisions that will impact the people, things, and places that you cherish.

Consider that only 6% of Americans include charitable bequests in their will, and only 30% will die with a will in place. Without a will the State decides who receives how much of your legacy, depriving you of the right to ensure your wishes are followed. Gifts do not need to be large in order to make a real difference. By speaking to your attorney, accountant, or financial advisor to help you, your gift can be used to fund any current CMC program, or to build an endowment that ensures future funding.

While you do have the choice to remain anonymous, we encourage you to notify the CMC Foundation of your gift so we can recognize your generosity and make the most of your future gift. The Club has provided so much for your trail through life. Planned giving helps our trail to go on.
