John and Mary Dogood have made an annual leadership gift ($1,000 and above) to United Way for many years. They are planning for retirement and formulating some financial plans for the future. They want to provide for the community care agenda as well as their familys needs long after they are gone. John and Mary decided to endow their annual gift.
