Legacy Planning
Support the Arts with Estate Planning
The Hartford Stage Shakespeare Society honors individuals who have included Hartford Stage in their estate plans, ensuring the theater’s legacy for future generations.
Legacy planning not only secures your loved ones’ future but also ensures that your values live on. By including Hartford Stage in your legacy plans, you can make a lasting impact on the arts while potentially reducing taxes and preserving your wealth during your lifetime.
Whether you’re focused on providing for your family, safeguarding your retirement, or supporting causes close to your heart, legacy giving offers a way to contribute that suits your unique circumstances. From bequests and trusts to annuities and beneficiary designations, there are many options to create a legacy that reflects your passions and supports Hartford Stage for generations to come.
Many of our supporters—including those whose capacity to give now is limited due to providing for their family and retirement needs—find that with a simple act of planning they can make a substantial difference for generations to come. You can do the same through a variety of options that may be appropriate for you—a bequest, trust or annuity, or designating Hartford Stage as the beneficiary of a retirement account or life insurance policy.
