Community Conversations: Legacy Giving

Lately, we’ve heard thoughtful questions from many supporters about legacy giving—especially how to leave a gift in your will and the kind of impact it can have for future generations. We’re so grateful for these conversations and wanted to create a space to explore this topic together.

Join us for a small, welcoming evening featuring the very knowledgeable guest speaker, MaryGrace Johnstone, a lawyer from Volkenant Law Group—and a proud Backpack Buddies champion and supporter. She will guide us through the basics of legacy giving and help make this topic clear and approachable.

Whether you’ve been thinking about this for a while or are simply curious, this is a comfortable space to learn more.

What to Expect:

Light refreshments and a brief community update

A short, easy-to-understand introduction to gifts in wills

A chance to hear answers to common questions and join an open, relaxed Q&A (ask as much or as little as you like)

Optional hands-on volunteering (packing food bags) and a ​Backpack Buddies warehouse tour

We know this is a personal topic, and we feel honoured to explore it together as a community.

Thank you for being part of this work. We couldn’t do it without you.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
