planned giving

The Choral Society’s planned giving programs allow you to make a more significant, lasting impact with the Choral Society, while complementing your personal financial planning.  A planned gift to the Choral Society can help generate lifelong income, offer significant tax deductions, reduce or eliminate estate taxes, and convert low-yielding assets into a higher income stream at a reduced capital gains cost.

The Heritage Society comprises the visionary supporters who have included the Choral Society in their estate plans. Some common planned giving vehicles include: Bequests, Gifts of Retirement Assets, Gifts of Life Insurance, Charitable Gift Annuities, Charitable Remainder Trusts, Charitable Lead Trusts. 

A bequest is the simplest way to provide a planned gift for the Choral Society and often allows donors to make significant contributions that may not have been possible during their lifetimes. If you have included a bequest to the Choral Society in your will, please let us know so we can acknowledge your generosity as a member of our Heritage Society by emailing Jane Kamp at jkamp@buckschoral.org.
