Legacy Club

Our Legacy Club members are a group of core supporters who have made the decision to include Citizens’ Climate in their estate plan, retirement plan, or life insurance policy. And they’re more than that. As group leaders, congressional liaisons, dedicated volunteers, donors, and staff, many of our Legacy Club members are already working toward a healthy climate now. And as parents and grandparents, world travelers and bookworms, Midwesterners and West Coasters, every Legacy Club member has a unique story to share.
