“I’m happy to designate a legacy gift to Brighton Center because this organization provides immeasurable benefits, and many Northern Kentucky and regional lives are improved on a daily basis. It’s broad mission includes key support programs from early childhood development, family and financial guidance, senior support, and much more - all designed to educate, and improve the lives of those in need. What could be a better way to help our neighbors than to provide a path of hope, and to teach them to help themselves?”

"Jim and I have been supporting Brighton Center since our move to NKY in 1999. Once I learned about the agency and its mission and impact, I knew right away it was an organization I would put forth my time, talents, and treasures. I am proud to have been a board member and chair over the last 21 years. Jim and I have both seen the transformational change that Brighton Center has had on thousands of lives in our community, and because of that, we are pleased to make a Planned Gift to the Center as part of our estate plan."

We believe in the mission of Brighton Center and have supported this mission for 30 plus years. The many programs that are offered provides support to individuals and families, thus allowing them the opportunity to reach self-sufficiency."

"Supporting the Legacy Campaign is our recognition that there will always be individuals and families in need of support. It also reflects our confidence in Brighton Center's leadership team and staff. It is comforting to know that they will continue to provide life changing programs that enhances the quality of life for their customers."

Craig True

"As a past member of the Brighton Center Board of Directors, I knew that Brighton Center had the means, relationships and sources of funding to meet its everyday programs and annual operating needs. What Brighton Center did not have was an endowment fund that could be used to assure that Brighton Center could continue its important mission, over the long term, in the event of some future, unknown or unforeseen financial setback to the organization. I also wanted Brighton Center to have an endowment fund that, in itself, could produce investment income to help Brighton Center continue its existing and future programs. That is why I undertook to participate in Planned Giving to Brighton Center in a very painless way - the purchase of a life insurance policy with Brighton Center as the beneficiary."

"Dianne and I are proud to be new members of the 1966 Society. We hope by making this investment in the good works of Brighton Center, with the commitment of others, the organization will continue to make a difference to so many people far into the future. We encourage others to become members of the 1966 Society."
