The AGA Legacy Society

A legacy of research and education…a commitment to the future

The AGA Legacy Society of the Foundation for Digestive Health and Nutrition honors individuals who have chosen to benefit the Foundation through a significant gift. Such gifts include present donations of cash, securities, or property. It also includes planned gifts through wills, living trusts, charitable trusts, retirement plans, and other estate planning arrangements.


Legacy Society members share a desire to guarantee long-term support for digestive disease research. Through their foresight and generosity, they help ensure the continued momentum of discovery and patient education that has characterized GI medicine in recent decades.


The Foundation recognizes the significant role that Legacy Society members play in ensuring the future of gastroenterology and hepatology research, and is pleased to pay special tribute to their philanthropic leadership and vision.
