The Legacy Wall

Marietta Community Foundation is proud to unveil the Legacy Wall — a meaningful tribute to the individuals whose generosity is helping shape a stronger future for Washington County. This wall recognizes the people behind our mission: those who believe in long-term impact and are committed to making it possible.

Gold Leaves

Gold leaves honor members of the 1788 Legacy Society — individuals who have included the Foundation in their estate plans. Through planned giving, these donors are leaving a lasting mark on our community and helping create a legacy of giving that extends well beyond their lifetime.

Silver Leaves

Each silver leaf represents individuals who have donated $25,000 or more to the Friends of the Foundation Fund. Their generosity supports the Foundation’s day-to-day work, allowing us to meet today’s needs while preparing for tomorrow’s opportunities.

Spotlighting the Stories Behind the Leaves

As the Legacy Wall continues to grow, we’ll be highlighting the stories behind the names — the people, values, and motivations that inspired their giving. These spotlights will share the passion and purpose behind each commitment, as each leaf adds another chapter to the Foundation’s story.

Be Part of the Legacy

The Legacy Wall is a testament to what’s possible when individuals choose to invest in something greater than themselves. Whether through planned giving or a significant contribution to the Foundation’s mission, every gift plays a role in shaping the future of Washington County.
