Leave a legacy of a clean Anacostia River

Thoughtful bequest planning is a life-affirming way to provide for your loved ones and to carry your values and priorities forward.  Members of our Legacy Circle have included the Anacostia Watershed Society in their estate plans.

Your planned gift to the Anacostia Watershed Society will benefit the Anacostia River long into the future, sustaining this natural wonder in the heart of the city.

Begin Your Legacy with Us

To help you get started on your plans and legacy, you can use FreeWill, an online tool that guides you through the process of creating a legally valid will or trust. It’s easy to use, accessible online and can be completed in 20 minutes. You can use this resource on its own, or use it to document your wishes before finalizing your plans with an attorney.

Have you already included a gift in your will or trust?  Please fill out this form to let us know!  We would love to thank you for your generosity.

Non-probate assets

Do you have an IRA, 401(k), life-insurance policy, or any other assets not included in your will? If so, these are called non-probate assets and you must plan your beneficiaries for them separately. Use this online tool to make your plans and designate us as a beneficiary of one or more of these assets.

To begin exploring your options for gift planning, please contact Kaila Cantens, our Gifts Officer, at 301-699-6204 x116, or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
