PLANNED GIVING
Your passion for the arts and education can live on when you designate MMoCA as a
beneficiary of assets or accounts you would like to donate. This “beneficiary designation”
is one of the simplest ways to make a planned gift in support of the long-term
vibrancy of the museum. It’s as easy as filling out a form. You can name MMoCA as
the sole beneficiary of an asset or one of several.
There are many benefits to making a gift this way including flexibility, ease, and tax
incentives, as well as supporting an organization you value. Moreover,
you can also easily change designations at any time. Assets to
consider designating include IRAs, insurance policies, and
investment accounts.
All who have established planned gifts in support of
MMoCA are recognized as members of the MMoCA
Circle, and are welcomed to numerous special events at
the museum each year. For additional information, please
visit mmoca.org/mmocacircle or call Elizabeth Tucker at
608.257.0158 x245.
