Like many supporters, Kathy Weeks became involved with Sierra Club through friends who share her passion for the outdoors. What’s special about Kathy is the depth of her passion. By providing for Sierra Club in her estate plan, she’s protecting the wildlife and wild places she loves well beyond her lifetime.

What first inspired your connection to the outdoors?
My ex-husband introduced me to hiking and camping. After we divorced, I missed those activities. So, I gravitated towards others who shared an interest in the outdoors. New friends introduced me to the Sierra Club and other groups that value and protect nature.

Do you have a favorite Sierra Club outing experience?
I also support the Bay Area Ridge Trail and have gone on several of their hikes, some of which are in concert with the Sierra Club. I wish I had more time to hike and explore.

What inspired your legacy gift to Sierra Club?
I decided to create a legacy gift with Sierra Club since I believe that protecting and supporting open spaces is vital for healthy living that everyone can enjoy.
