Bequests and other ways to plan your legacy support
A bequest is one way to plan future support. You might include the phrase “I give to the American Academy of Arts and Letters, at 633 West 155th Street, NYC, [identify sum, percentage/remainder, asset] for its general purposes OR [for a specific purpose].”
Arts and Letters accept gifts of cash and cash equivalents, intellectual property, and tangible personal property; we may also accept retirement plan assets, charitable remainder trusts, life insurance policies, and donor-advised fund assets.
Arts and Letters welcomes inquiries, and invites you to consult with us in the event you wish to designate a restricted purpose. We look forward to working with you to meet your goals.
