Planned giving is an opportunity to make the change you wish to see in the world. For many decades, these lasting gifts have made a tremendous impact on our community and made medical progress possible. The Heritage Society was established in 1995 by Southwestern Medical Foundation to recognize those who make planned gifts to benefit UT Southwestern Medical Center.
It is with deep gratitude for the investments over the past 25 years, we celebrate the phenomenal commitment to our community that our Heritage Society members exhibit. It is with these gifts that we meet the challenges of today and will be prepared to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
If you would like to learn more about legacy planning, please contact Randal Daugherty, Director of Planned Giving at UT Southwestern, at (214) 648-3069 or randal.daugherty@utsouthwestern.edu
