The Golden Eagle Society


The Golden Eagle Society is a major donor initiative for friends of the Carolina Rap­tor Center (CRC) that look to leave their legacy by supporting our efforts to conserve raptors through education outreach, research, and rehabilitation. By making a planned gift to the Carolina Raptor Center, you will join the growing flock that is The Golden Eagle Society!

Planned gifts—like bequests and beneficiary designations of retirement assets—are an increasingly important source of support, guaranteeing the Carolina Raptor Center will have robust resources to conserve precious birds of prey into the future. The Golden Eagle Society recognizes those who have included the Carolina Raptor Center in their estate plans. You do not need to be wealthy to make a planned gift—you can gift cash, real property, retirement assets, and insurance policies to CRC.

Planned giving also gives you the flexibility to determine how you want to support CRC’s vibrant future. Please speak with your financial advisor to learn more.

In addition to making an impact long into the future, you will receive the following benefits:

  • Golden Eagle Society lapel pin
  • Special recognition at the Carolina Raptor Center and in all annual reports
  • Invitations to all major donor recognition events
