LEGACY CIRCLE FUND

The SOPHE Legacy Circle Fund supports the organization’s future goals—health education, health promotion, research, and practice. This fund serves as the cornerstone for innovation to improve health for all.

The Legacy Circle is for donors who want to have a crucial role in advancing SOPHE’s mission—and be remembered in perpetuity on SOPHE’s Legacy Wall or honor a colleague or mentor who has been inspirational.

We cannot do any of this without your generous gifts.

What’s your legacy?

When designing a legacy, it is important to consider:

Your past: In the past, SOPHE paved the way for legislative advocacy, in building a body of health educators who respect and lift up the profession, and by showing recognition and admiration for the thought leaders by forming a stand-alone society of professionals who can depend on each other.

Your present: Today, SOPHE proudly recognizes its accomplishments while not resting on laurels. SOPHE defines new and exciting partnerships to reinforce the support for health equity in all communities and maintains a relevant pulse among professionals to build a strong society of volunteers to fulfill its mission.

Your future: Tomorrow, SOPHE will look to the next generation of leaders. The 21st Century scholars and the graduates of public health degrees across the globe. How will we tackle these new and emerging problems? How can we build stronger and healthier communities in the face of an ever-changing world?
