The ARCA 70th Anniversary Legacy Luncheon is a special gathering focused on honoring ARCA’s enduring legacy and ensuring its mission continues for generations to come. This meaningful event will highlight the importance of planned giving, exploring opportunities to include ARCA in your estate and why these gifts are vital to long-term sustainability and perpetuity.

Guests will learn directly from a professional planned giving expert, engage with current Circle of Promise members, and receive updates on documentation and request forms. The luncheon also provides an opportunity to connect with ARCA leadership, individuals supported by ARCA, and fellow Circle of Promise members while enjoying a delicious lunch in a warm, celebratory setting.

This luncheon is both a celebration of 70 years of impact and a commitment to the future—where legacy, learning, and generosity come together.
