Heritage Society: Benefits & Stories

We are very grateful to members of UW Medicine’s Heritage Society: alumni, friends and patients who have made planned gift commitments to research, education and patient care at UW Medicine.

In turn, we are pleased to invite members of the Heritage Society to two very special events each year — Tomorrow Today (to honor members of the Turner Society, our giving club) and Dean’s Circle (in which we recognize and celebrate our leadership donors). We also subscribe our members to our biennial magazine, UW Medicine.

Below are a few stories of inspiring generosity from members of our Heritage Society.
