Planned Giving

Make Children’s Education Part of Your Legacy

AFC’s Legacy Giving Program offers a range of planned giving opportunities for dedicated donors of any age to deepen their commitment to protecting the education rights of students from families with low incomes in New York City. Making a planned gift to AFC carries on your passion for education and ensures that AFC is fortified to serve future generations of students facing obstacles to their learning.
