How we′ve helped inspire $30M in gifts to Charity since 2012
While Quiet Legacy focusses mainly on individuals financial and estate plans, we also work closely with local and national charities to help you inspire your donors to make an impact.


Donor Talks
Since 2012, we’ve partnered 14 other firms across Canada to provide The Donor Motivation Program™. Quiet Legacy is the program provider here in London, Ontario. Here in London we’ve provided over 100 donor presentations for local, regional and national charities. Our program has been tested for over 30 years, in two different countries, and has had a major impact for charities across Canada.

Driven By Purpose
Ryan’s book, Driven By Purpose : 32 Remarkable Stories about Growing your Wealth and Leaving a Transformational Legacy is published by Milner & Associates.
Charities can engage Ryan for Live & Virtual Presentations around the book, and we can produce copies of the book with your organization’s logo and imprint for distribution to your donors.
Driven by Purpose is designed to inspire your donor, helping you amplify the message that giving can be done easily by anyone.

Life Insurance Program Audits
If your organization accepts gifts of life insurance, we can help provide you with an audit of your existing donated policies. We recently worked with one of Canada’s best known nature charities, World Wildlife Fund – see what they had to say about how important our audit was for them:
“In 2019, WWF-Canada retained Quiet Legacy Group to conduct an audit of our life insurance files. Their team was organized and efficient. Ryan has an in-depth knowledge of the life insurance industry and he helped us to better understand what was needed to preserve the value invested in those policies. He highlighted changing trends in the industry and he provided us with clear guidance and recommendations on how to move forward. Ryan’s expertise has provided a much needed update to our life insurance portfolio, allowing us to better manage these files on behalf of the caring donors who set them up.”

Annual Valentine's Day Breakfast for London's non-profit Executive Directors & CEOs
Every year we give back to our non-profit community by hosting a breakfast for our local non-profit EDs & CEOs. There’s no agenda, other than our way of saying thanks to you. The conversations around the breakfast table are always fascinating and it’s a great chance for our non-profit leadership to connect to their peers. We know it’s a lonely gig for leadership and you never get to meet with your peers on a personal basis – so we’ve carved out one morning a year just for you.

A snapshot of a uniquely quiet giver.
Around this time last year, I handed over our newsletter to our Director of Operations, Sarah Morkin, who wrote of her Grandmother, an Opera Singer who was helped tremendously by her community during hard times. It quickly became one of our most popular features ever. I’m pleased to invite Sarah back again this July to […]
How one charity gave our family a gift to last a lifetime
In the last couple of months, we’ve been working on a number of complex planning cases where the topic of starting a new charity has come up. The question is, if you are going to have a charity offspring as cute as these Canada Geese goslings I saw a couple of weeks ago- is that […]
Starting a Newborn Charity from Scratch
Normally we tell the story of a person, but this month I thought we’d change it up and tell you the story of a building instead – one that Quiet Legacy happens to inhabit. I hope you will enjoy the story of this fascinating character, and its rebirth as a charity. Long before my days […]
