The First Things to Consider
Who do I contact?
Please contact Brother John Hadgkiss (Beta Rho ’66) at omega@apdfoundation.org if you’d like to step through your options. Or simply inform John of the bequest once it’s made. All we need is your written verification. If you have already included Alpha Phi Delta Foundation in your estate plan, please let us know so that we can award you the Omega Society pin.
Why is it important to consider an estate plan?
An estate plan gift is a powerful tool that can provide a way for you to help secure your own financial future and the financial future of Alpha Phi Delta. It can help you make larger gifts than you ever dreamed possible. Some estate plan gifts can provide you with income for life.
