A note from Traci Russell
Thank you for spending time with these pages.
Planned giving is deeply personal — it touches your family, your values, and the causes you love most. When you’re ready to talk it through, I’m here. I’ll listen carefully, honor what matters to you, and walk through your options in confidence, with no obligation and no pressure.
Whether you’re just beginning to think about a legacy gift or you’ve already decided how you’d like to include Seattle Colleges, I’d be grateful for the chance to hear from you.
