Legacy Society

A Vision of Community

Uppermost in Robert E. Simon’s mind when he founded Reston in 1964 was community. An open community where everyone regardless of income, race or religion was welcomed. A place where everyone could live, work, play and remain throughout their lifetime. The importance and dignity of each individual would be a focal point.

More than five decades later, Cornerstones continues to be guided by Bob’s pioneering vision. Our signature approach ensures that families, children, seniors and other neighbors suffering from homelessness, isolation, or living in poverty can access resources that offer stability, empowerment, and hope for healthy and connected lives.

To ensure Bob’s vision for the future, we created the Robert E. Simon Legacy Society, which recognizes donors who include Cornerstones in their estate plans. As a member of the Society, you are providing long-term support for our community, while also accomplishing your financial, estate-planning, and philanthropic goals. Bob’s legacy lives on today. What will your legacy be?
