Meet Our Team

At the Legacy Foundation, we believe that individuals are designed with the innate desire to make a difference, leave their mark, and live a purposeful life that extends well beyond themselves.

A legacy is the story we leave behind—shaped by our faith, families, friendships, acts of service, and the causes we care about. Planning ahead allows us to pass on our values and create a future filled with hope for the people and community we love.

A History of Philanthropy

In the early 1960’s, local businessman and real estate developer, Berry C. Williams, was inspired by a vision for a retirement community along the shores of the Caloosahatchee River in an area long known as “Shell Point.” This vision took root in a significant charitable gift of 75 acres of prime waterfront property by Mr. Williams to The Christian and Missionary Alliance for the development of Shell Point Retirement Community.

Since its founding, this spirit of philanthropy and giving has been at the core of the mission and ministry of Shell Point. And today, the importance of philanthropic support to our vision for the future is just as vital. Your gifts today and in the future, will allow Shell Point to not only remain a leader in the industry, but will allow us to expand and improve the care we give to each resident and their loved ones.
