Beyond family, what are the issues that you care deeply about? If the Grand Canyon holds meaning for you, consider a gift to future generations by making a bequest to the Grand Canyon Trust. 

Legacy Circle members enjoy access to exclusive benefits such as member field-trip opportunities, our biannual print magazine, an annual report, and personal communications from the executive director.
