The Steamship Historical Society of America

Your Generosity Will Help Sustain SSHSA

Planned Gifts

You can further the important work of the Steamship Historical Society of America, Inc. in a variety of ways, including through your estate.  Planned or deferred gifts enable the Society to plan for the future because they will be realized at some later date.  You can make a planned gift by naming the SSHSA as a beneficiary in your Will or by naming the SSHSA as an owner and beneficiary of a fulfilled life insurance policy.

Your attorney can advise you on the various types of charitable trusts and the estate tax benefits of each, and assist you in setting up a planned gift that is tailored to your personal needs.  You may also want to talk with your attorney or financial advisor about the tax benefits of naming the SSHSA in your estate. If easier or if help is needed, you may also contact Matthew Schulte, Executive Director, and he'd be happy to provide assistance in helping you accomplish your goals.
