Legacy Giving
Making a Planned Gift to ESC
Supporting Nonprofits, Creating Lasting Change in Our Communities
At Executive Service Corps of Southern California (ESC), we believe that nonprofits – and the individuals who drive them – should have everything they need to succeed.
We partner with nonprofits so they can create meaningful change, achieve long-term sustainability, and meet the critical needs of the people who rely on them every day. Since 1981, ESC has helped thousands of nonprofit organizations and professionals develop the needed expertise to strengthen their leadership and management skills and meet growing demand for their services – particularly amid external pressures and uncertainties.
Your support helps us to continue strengthening the organizations working to address our region’s most pressing challenges – and ensure their success over the long haul.

Let's Start the Conversation
If you have already included ESC in your estate plans — or would like more information about naming us as a beneficiary of a will, life insurance policy, retirement account, or other financial account — please contact David Factor, President Emeritus, at [email protected].
Together, we can explore options that align with your personal philanthropic and financial goals… help you build impact that will endure for generations to come.
The Power of a Legacy Gift
