Legacy Planning

Heaton Smith is a legacy planning firm that has worked with Prisma Health-Upstate donors for more than seven years. Our Heaton Smith consultant, Dave Smith, guides donors through their values-based legacy planning process, helping donors determine their family, financial and philanthropic legacies. Heaton Smith makes specific legacy goal recommendations that are reviewed and implemented by donors’ existing advisors. Importantly, Heaton Smith’s planning is a no-cost service that the Upstate Foundation offers to our donors, and they do not sell any products. We would welcome an opportunity to schedule an introductory meeting for you to learn more about Heaton Smith’s expertise and the Prisma Health Legacy Society. Contact us by email Giving@PrismaHealth.org or calling 864-797-7746.
