Every year, charities receive gifts that supporters leave us in their estate plans, some we are aware of and some that are welcome surprises. These gifts are very important to the sustainability of an organization’s mission. In many cases, the charitable organization is unable to thank these wonderful donors for their generosity which advance the mission or cause they care deeply about. 

Quest has established the Katie Porta Legacy Society in honor of her service as Quest, Inc. President and CEO from 1981 to 2014. Katie Porta served Central Florida, not for personal gain and not for recognition. She did it because she believed it was part of her responsibility as a citizen. She will remain widely and uncritically admired. She symbolizes a movement and has built a lasting legacy of love and hope for all those who have worked along-side her and for all.

As Quest identifies Katie Porta Legacy Society members, we will invite them to special events where they will see our work first hand and learn how their legacy gift will sustain Quest’s mission over the next 50 years. Members will be asked to share their Quest and family stories and why giving to the Katie Porta Legacy Society is meaningful to them.

Quest advocates may become a member of the Katie Porta Legacy Society in any of the following ways:

• bequest in a will or living trust
• beneficiary designation in a retirement plan
• beneficiary of a life insurance policy
• any other planned gift that provides for our future

If you have already arranged a future gift or are considering a planned gift, we invite you to contact Quest, Inc. and complete the Katie Porta Legacy Society Membership Interest Form.
