Memorial Gifts
Looking to honor someone special? Consider giving a memorial gift to the Angus Foundation or fundraise in their memory.

Memorial gifts to your loved one can be made to the Angus Foundation.
We welcome and frequently receive "in-memory" gifts. These non-endowed contributions provide an important funding to be used for scholarships or other purposes that support the Angus Foundation’s mission of supporting youth, education, and research. The Angus Foundation will notify the deceased’s family that a memorial gift (no amount disclosed) has been made in memory of their loved one.
If you would like to send memorial gifts in honor of your loved one at the time of their passing, consider using our sample obituary language below.
