Legacy Giving<br />
Intergenerational Gardening Opportunity<br />
Do you enjoy gardening? Consider getting involved this spring with the<br />
intergenerational garden co-sponsored by the <strong>Roseville</strong> <strong>Area</strong> <strong>Senior</strong><br />
<strong>Program</strong> and the Fairview Alternative High School. This will be a learning<br />
opportunity for FAHS students and adults to work side by side. If you<br />
would like to get involved or have questions contact Janell Wampler,<br />
RASP Coordinator at 651.604.3520 or janell.wampler@isd623.org.<br />
Leave a lasting legacy by remembering the <strong>Roseville</strong> <strong>Area</strong> <strong>Senior</strong> <strong>Program</strong> in your will or estate plan.<br />
A planned gift provides much needed funding to sustain the future of RASP’s programs, activities, and<br />
services. Using planned bequests through a will or estate plan, revocable living trusts, real estate,<br />
appreciated stock, IRA’s, retirement accounts, and life insurance are a meaningful way to define your<br />
legacy. Gifts may be designated to a specific area of RASP, such as Meals on Wheels, transportation, or<br />
service coordination activities. Memorial gifts are also welcome. For any memorial gift of $25 of more, a<br />
memorial plaque honoring your loved one will be displayed in the RASP drop-in lounge.<br />
To discuss a planned gift confidentially contact Janell B Wampler, <strong>Program</strong> Coordinator at<br />
Janell.Wampler@isd623.org or call 651-604-3520.<br />
