Legacy
A simple desire to pay forward extravagant love. A knowledge that there is purpose to life beyond that which we see. In both his life and death, David inspired our founders to leave the caregiver community stronger than they found it.
The Pfohls sifted through the devastation of losing their child to uncover a calling – to ensure that parents in the most trying circumstances would hear the messages of faith, hope and love that sustained them.
Ensuring Tomorrow Is As Beautiful As Today Is
Why Legacy Giving?
All of us want to be remembered as good stewards of our resources. Shape the future through your choices today and become part of a legacy that will sustain long after we’re gone.
Gifts made as part of your will or estate give you an opportunity to invest in David’s Refuge in a more substantial way than may be possible during your lifetime.
Thank You For Your Trust

From providing a first class, unique service to local parents, to excellent financial stewardship and integrity, there was no question that David’s Refuge would be included in my estate planning.”
