Planned Giving

Providing for Sacramento Opera in the years ahead is one of the most generous gifts an individual can make. Your planned gift helps ensure that Sacramento Opera will continue to serve audiences for years to come.

Your planned gift can be mutually beneficial for you and Sacramento Opera:

Legacy or Estate Gifts enable donors to affect the lives of the people and institutions about which they care. Wills and living trusts can be especially useful for individuals who cannot currently make large gifts, as well as those who have already made significant gifts. Some estate plans employ trusts, gifts of retirement plan assets, or life insurance proceeds.

Life Income Gifts allow donors to make a charitable gift now, while still providing for themselves and/or selected beneficiaries. Examples include charitable remainder trusts, charitable gift annuities, charitable lead trusts, or deferred payment gift annuities.

Other gift considerations include gifts of securities, real estate, and other tangible property.
