The Dr. Eddie Richardson Jr. Legacy Fund
Building a Healthier Georgia for Generations to Come
The Georgia Healthy Family Alliance (GHFA) proudly honors Dr. Eddie Richardson Jr., longtime Board Chair, community physician, and advocate for family medicine, through the creation of the Dr. Eddie Richardson Jr. Legacy Fund.
This fund continues Dr. Richardson’s vision of advancing family medicine and improving the health of Georgia communities for generations to come.
What is Planned Giving?
Planned giving (also known as legacy giving) allows you to make a lasting impact beyond your lifetime through a will, trust, life insurance policy, or other estate plan.
GHFA has partnered with FreeWill, a free, secure tool that helps you create a legally valid will in about 20 minutes — and, if you wish, include a gift that supports GHFA’s work across Georgia.
