Join the Founders Legacy Society

The Founders Legacy Society is open to those who make CCA a beneficiary of a bequest or other planned gift (such as retirement assets, life insurance policies, charitable remainder or lead trusts, real estate, stock, or securities). Planned gifts may allow you to satisfy financial planning needs as well as provide a secure future for CCA.

Members of the legacy society receive Patron's Circle benefits, including invitations to special CCA publications, a 20 percent discount on Extended Education course tuition, and a permanent listing on the donor walls at both campuses.

Many alumni, friends, parents, and trustees have included CCA in their estate plans. Please join them and help ensure that future generations of deserving students will benefit from CCA's tradition of excellence in education through the arts.
