The Pepper Foundation seeks annual support from donors to build on the legacy
of Senator and Mrs. Pepper. Thanks to the generosity of numerous donors, the
Pepper Foundation has been able to move forward as a living legacy to the extraordinary
man and woman who gave it life, vitality and a strong economic start.
For example, an annual gift can help:
- Educate elders about public policy issues that impact their lives and about
effective advocacy
- Serve as a conduit for assistance to other groups and programs which help
individuals, particularly those programs that ease the burden on elderly citizens
- Sponsor or convene groups of experts to analyze public policy issues
- Maintain and add to the Claude Pepper Library, one of the most significant
political historical collections in the nation as well as an outreach program
providing many educational and public interest programs
- Participate in creating intergenerational programs to bring the elderly and
the young together in settings which foster mutual understanding
- Develop and sponsor the Claude Pepper Museum in the Pepper Center on the FSU
campus, and a Traveling Exhibit which travels
to sites all over the country to bring whole new generations information about
the Peppers and their many vital causes.
Donors may make annual gifts to the Foundation in various forms, including
outright cash donations, appreciated property and securities, gifts in kind
or bequests.
