The NCFP Guide to Interpreting Donor Legacy

Susan Packard Orr was appointed as the board chair of the David and Lucile Packard Foundation. While her parents' values were a clear guide for the next generation of the Packard family, Susan wishes she had some more direction from her parents. In this guide, she explores the questions that she wishes her and her fellow board members had asked of the founders.

This guide will help families who are thinking about capturing the values, perspectives, and priorities of donors while they are living, and for any donor considering what type of guidance would be most helpful for future generations.
