YOUR LEGACY: Brighter Futures for Kids with Cancer

Making a planned gift is an incredible way to secure the long-term stability of The Morgan Adams Foundation — no matter what the future holds. 

With a gift in your will or other estate plans, you become a member of the Iris Society, a passionate group of supporters that will enable our foundation to fund lifesaving treatments for generations to come.

Join a community of forward-thinkers

Our mission isn’t just for today—it’s for the long haul. Whether you’re 25 or 75, a planned gift is a statement that you believe in a better tomorrow for kids with cancer. Joining is simple and doesn’t require a big gift today, just a promise for the future.

Take charge today of what your legacy will mean tomorrow

Joining the Iris Society is a way to make a lasting impact in the lives of kids and teens with cancer. It’s perhaps the most meaningful gift you can make – from your family to families who need it the most.

Donor Benefits of a Legacy Gift

As we made our estate plans, we were determined to help ensure that the tireless efforts of The Morgan Adams Foundation had a shot at long-term stability. Our will was written so that MAF received a specified percentage of our estate before other distributions are made. It is one of our great wishes that this organization endures until there is a cure for all kids who, tragically, get cancer.
