Dottie Hansen Society

Alongside Rita, Dottie worked to create Feeding America, Kentucky’s Heartland because she saw a need and had a vision to meet it. Donors who designate planned gifts are members of the Dottie Hansen Society because, like Dottie, they leave a legacy of caring for those in their community that face hunger. Planned Gifts are contributions donors make to the food bank in their will, estate, trust, or other type of deferred gift as part of a bequest or other form of financial planning. These specialized gifts often require the involvement of the donor’s accountant or legal advisor. Please contact Stephanie Hester at shester@feedingamericaky.org for more information.
