Since the Central Park Conservancy's founding in 1980, both the organization and Central Park have benefited greatly from thoughtful friends who've included the Conservancy in their wills and other estate gifts. Regardless of your stage of life—whether you're starting your first job, welcoming your first child into the world, or enjoying retirement—it's never too early or too late to create an estate plan to care for loved ones and remember organizations that mean so much to you.
The Conservancy is pleased to offer its friends free access to Giving Docs, an independent online platform that makes it simple to provide for the future of loved ones and those organizations you hold dear by leaving gifts through your will and other estate planning vehicles. With this easy-to-use platform, you can create a will or learn about other ways to make plans for the future in just a few minutes. And once you're done, you can revise or update your documents for free at any time. There’s no obligation and you are not required to leave a gift to the Conservancy or any other organization in order to create a will. Get started today!
JOIN THE OLMSTED VISIONARIES
The Olmsted Visionaries help secure Central Park’s future by including the Conservancy in their estate plans through a bequest or other legacy gift. In the mid-19th century, Frederick Law Olmsted, Calvert Vaux, and New Yorkers of remarkable foresight had the vision to create a great park in rapidly growing Manhattan. Today, our Olmsted Visionaries carry on the noble tradition of looking to the future by creating special gifts that will benefit generations of Park users to come. If you have already named the Conservancy as a beneficiary of your estate plans, please let us know. Olmsted Visionaries receive unique benefits, including invitations to our Annual Olmsted Visionaries Tea, and much more.

Giving Docs advises that once you have had your will witnessed and notarized, it will be legally binding. Giving Docs will give you detailed instructions on how to do so in order to ensure that your will carries out your wishes. Giving Docs securely keeps your information in your profile so that you can quickly and easily update your will whenever you need to.
