Giving From the Heart: Letty’s Legacy
Letty Cooley had a big smile and an even bigger heart for children. She served Child Advocates of Fort Bend as a devoted CASA volunteer for ten years, advocating for many children in foster care. She worked with drug-exposed babies and those who experienced severe abuse. Letty genuinely loved all children, and she firmly believed in the mission of Child Advocates of Fort Bend.
We were saddened by Letty’s passing in December of 2006, but her legacy lives on through our mission and each child we are able to reach, help and heal. Through an unrestricted gift made by a simple bequest in her will, Letty made the agency’s very first legacy gift. It was the final gift needed to complete the building of the Davis George Center, our current location in Rosenberg, which continues to serve hundreds of children each month. Today, we honor Letty by sharing the story of her dedication and the legacy she provided. Child Advocates of Fort Bend invites you to launch your own legacy, empowering your philanthropy in a fresh, energized way — by choosing gift options that can be tailored to your goals and your connection to our mission.
