Members of Leave 10 South Sound toast to a thriving Pierce County for generations to come

 

In 2021, GTCF commissioned a Transfer of Wealth report that showed Pierce County has a household net worth of $269 Billion. Over the next 10 years, our community will see $48.6 Billion transfer from one generation to the next. 

Soon after that report was released, Leave 10 South Sound launched. Leave 10 South Sound is an initiative created by local nonprofits, professional advisors, and individuals. It is designed to educate, encourage, and inspire people in the South Puget Sound region to leave at least 10% of their estates to charity.  

GTCF supports the Leave 10 South Sound initiative as a free resource for planned giving. Individuals and organizations can take advantage of the site’s tools and knowledge to transform our community for generations to come.

      In addition to GTCF, Leave 10 South Sound is supported by talented and tireless volunteers, South Sound Community Foundation, Ben B. Cheney Foundation, MultiCare Foundation, and Cornerstone Financial Strategies. 

      Take advantage of the free resources and learn more about transforming the future of Pierce County through legacy giving at the Leave 10 South Sound website.
