Please join us in supporting the ACTEC Foundation
during the 2011 Annual “All-College” campaign.

Your ACTEC colleagues and friends who serve on the ACTEC Foundation Board will soon seek your support so that the Foundation can continue to identify and fund projects that offer valuable resources for our Fellows, our profession and our broader communities.

ACTEC Fellow contributions underwrite valuable resources such as ACTEC Commentaries and the SSRN — references used daily by trust and estate practitioners across the country. Ongoing support
for symposia and scholarly events generates important pportunities for the publication of papers for academics. (To learn more about the recent Uniform Probate Code Symposium, go to page 2.)

Your support encourages future trust and estate practitioners, who gain unique opportunities to apply their knowledge through writing, research and realworld clinical experiences. This year’s winner of the Mary Moers Wenig Student Writing Competition said, “I have had an incredible opportunity to research, study and write about fiduciary duties in a trust and estate context. I really appreciate the learning opportunity that the Competition has provided for me. It is an honor to be recognized by such a distinguished organization as ACTEC.”

Funding provided by the ACTEC Foundation also enables the Student Editorial Board at Hofstra University School of Law to support a dedicated staff of students to research citations for the articles that appear in the ACTEC Law Journal. Your giving also provides valuable aid for legal clinics across the country where students provide guidance on wills to at-risk or underserved people.
Contributions can be made online with a credit card on the Foundation’s web site at www.actecfoundation.org/donation/. Or Fellows may include a contribution to the ACTEC Foundation when remitting dues, either by check or online. In addition, donations can be made by a gift of stock or securities, or through the committee reimbursement request form for committee members who attend the Fall or Summer National Meetings.

We hope that you will join us now in donating so that at the 2012 Annual Meeting in Miami Beach, Florida, you will know you’ve been a part of the success of our latest “All-College” campaign.

Sincerely,

Cynda C. Ottaway
