October is National Estate Planning Month—a time to reflect on how we can protect our loved ones and support the causes that matter most to us, even after we’re gone. At the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation, we believe estate planning is a powerful tool for building a lasting legacy. It’s not just about distributing assets; it’s about preserving your values and making a meaningful impact on future generations.

Whether you’re thinking about leaving a gift to your family, a local charity, or both, estate planning can ensure your wishes are fulfilled. Through planned giving options like bequests, charitable trusts, or designated funds, you can provide continued support for causes that are close to your heart. By partnering with the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation, you’ll be part of a legacy that strengthens our communities for good, for ever.

Local attorney Nathan P. Olson emphasizes the ease of working with your Community Foundation team, “I always want to know that my clients are in good hands and taken care of.  I also want them to have a positive experience when discussing a topic that can often be difficult.  I never have to worry about these important factors when I send them to the OACF.  There is a definite ease and peace of mind for all involved when working with the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation.”

The Oshkosh Area Community Foundation is here to help you navigate the process and provide personalized solutions that align with your values and goals. We work closely with donors and their professional advisors to ensure their philanthropy makes a lasting difference. This October, take the first step toward securing your legacy. Whether you’re updating an existing plan or starting from scratch, we’re here to support you on your journey. Let’s work together to create a legacy of passion, purpose, and impact.
