Honoring Pat & Karen LeSage’s Lasting Legacy 

Pathfinders is grateful to all who’ve included the organization in their estate plans, including Pat and Karen LeSage. The couple, who were particularly passionate about youth mental health, generously supported Pathfinders during their lifetime and Karen served on Pathfinders’ Board of Directors.

In honor of Karen, who predeceased him, Pat included a charitable bequest to Pathfinders in his estate plan. He had these words to share:

“(Karen) worked tirelessly to ensure every youth had the opportunity to live a safe, healthy and successful life by investing in and working with organizations like Pathfinders who help our youth find hope and a path forward. I can think of no more fitting way to honor her memory than to dedicate my support to the work of Pathfinders.”

Pathfinders will provide resources and support to Milwaukee youth facing homelessness for as long as they need us. Bequest gifts like Pat and Karen’s ensure we can keep doing this important work well into the future.
