Mary and Bo Shafer Legacy Society

Join the Mary and Bo Shafer Legacy Society.

To celebrate the lives of the late Mary Shafer and her distinguished husband, Bo, Kiwanis International Foundation has created the Mary and Bo Shafer Legacy Society, recognizing planned gifts of US$50,000 or more.

A past Kiwanis International president, Bo earned the nickname “servant with a heart” as he fulfilled many vital leadership roles. He and Mary generously contributed time, talent and treasure to Kiwanis and its foundation, and to many other organizations.

“Mary and Bo Shafer have exemplified the spirit of philanthropy and volunteerism,” says Foundation Immediate Past President Jack Harten. “The foundation’s trustees believe Bo and Mary have served as exceptional role models for those who wish to ensure a bright future for Kiwanis International and establish a legacy of their own.”

Previous donors or those who wish to include a gift of US$50,000 or more to Kiwanis International Foundation in their estate plans can learn more by contacting Matt Morris, Major/Planned Gifts Officer, at 800-KIWANIS, ext. 234 (USA and Canada), 317-217-6234, or mmorris@kiwanis.org.
