Encore Society
The Brevard Music Center is deeply grateful for the special patrons who have included BMC in their estate plans. The Encore Society is made up of individuals who have made planned gifts to the Music Center and have notified BMC of their intentions.
There are many different types of planned gifts that can provide important estate and tax planning benefits, while assuring the future of BMC. Bequests, various types of charitable gift annuities and trusts, naming BMC a beneficiary of a life estate or life insurance policy, and naming the Music Center as a beneficiary of an IRA or retirement plan are a few examples of the possibilities.
Properly planned charitable gifts do more than help BMC. They can supplement a donor's income, help avoid capital gains, and reduce estate and income taxes; all the while providing the personal satisfaction that comes from knowing you have made a difference in the lives of ambitious and gracious young people.
If you would like more information about planning giving, or would like to notify BMC of an existing planned gift, please contact David Huskins, Director of Development, at (828) 862-2121 or dhuskins@brevardmusic.org.
