Over the years, hundreds of caring Canadians have very generously donated Legacy Gifts to USC Canada. Once received, these Legacy Gifts are deposited in the Lotta Hitschmanova Legacy Fund, to generate income to help USC support communities in Africa, Asia, and Latin America for generations to come.

If you would like to honour Dr. Lotta in this way, there are a variety of ways that you can leave a Legacy Gift to USC. The most common of these is to leave a bequest in your will. Other types of gifts (life insurance, annuity, etc) are also possible.

If you are interested in leaving a special Legacy Gift to USC, we invite you to fill out our Confidential Gift Form, or if you would like more information, please contact our Legacy Gift specialist, David Rain, by telephone (1-800-565-6872 ext. 231), or by email.

Thank you for being part of Dr. Lotta’s legacy.

If you are considering a bequest, we at USC encourage you to consult an independent financial advisor or lawyer to be sure that provisions are made for your own care, as well as your loved ones.
