Leave a Legacy with Pikes Peak Habitat

Learn more about opportunities to leave your legacy in El Paso County in support of affordable homeownership.

Anyone who wants to build a legacy regardless of their age or income can help us bring hope to future generations of families in need of affordable housing.

Your gift – no matter the size – will forge a lasting legacy that impacts local families for generations. Just a little planning expands your opportunity to help Pikes Peak Habitat for Humanity build a world where everyone has a safe, decent, and affordable place to call home.

As with all financial planning, it is important to consult your attorney or financial advisor to ensure compliance, maximum tax benefits, and help with legal documents.
