A Legacy for Oregon's Children
In 2005, Boys & Girls Aid will celebrate 120 years of caring for Oregon's vulnerable children. Community support has made it possible for the agency to operate high quality services and carry on a tradition of innovative leadership.

Bequests and other legacy gifts help to ensure that the Society will carry on this tradition for generations to come. Over the years, we have received more than 135 bequests and another 67 individuals have informed us that they have included the Society in their estate plans.

What A Difference Bequests and Planned Gifts Make!
There are many ways for you to create a legacy for the future of Oregon's children. While the most common type of estate gift is a simple bequest, some arrangements also benefit you by:
  • increasing your current income
  • lowering your income, gift and estate taxes
  • eliminating capital gains taxes
All individuals who include an estate gift for children with Boys & Girls Aid are eligible for membership in the Frank E. Beach Legacy Society.
