A Legacy of Hope: The Babarczy Family’s Enduring Impact
In a remarkable act of philanthropy, the late Elmer J. Babarczy leaves a lasting legacy that underscores the profound impact one individual can have for generations. His visionary decision to include Catholic Charities among the five distinguished beneficiaries of the family’s estate provides substantial support to serve those in need following his wife Sara’s passing in May 2023.
Positioned in the heart of Los Gatos, the Babarczy family home has symbolized hope and generosity for many. The sale of this beloved property for $2.8 million not only underscores the Babarczys’ connection to their community but also their unwavering commitment to charity. This considerable contribution bolsters the efforts of Catholic Charities, among others, enabling the expansion of vital community services and support.
The sale was expertly managed by Roy Moses and his son Joe of the Moses Team, long-time friends of Elmer and Sara, who were honored to represent the Babarczy legacy. “It was a privilege to handle the sale of the Babarczy residence. Elmer and Sara’s decision to support charities through this sale reflects a remarkable commitment to giving back. We are proud to have played a part in ensuring their legacy will continue to impact lives positively,” Roy Moses remarked.
This act of generosity serves as a powerful testament to how thoughtful estate planning can amplify one’s impact beyond their lifetime. By choosing to donate their home, Elmer and Sara Babarczy have provided substantial support to various causes, including Catholic Charities, inspiring others to consider how they too can create a lasting legacy of philanthropy.
