A Variety of Charitable Giving Methods

This site provides information that will enable you to further the work of the Center and Orchestra in a way that is consistent with your own financial goals.
Make a meaningful donation
Each year, patrons support the Kennedy Center and the National Symphony
Orchestra with contributions of cash and other assets. In recognition
of a donation, you may realize tax benefits while enjoying the personal
satisfaction of helping the Center and Orchestra.
Enjoy lifetime income
You and/or your beneficiaries can receive guaranteed income for life (or
a term of years) from the Kennedy Center's life income plans.
Transfer wealth to your heirs with tax savings
Through an estate plan, it is possible for you to make a future transfer
of assets to your heirs at a substantially reduced gift and estate tax
cost, while continuing to support the Kennedy Center and the National
Symphony Orchestra during your lifetime.
Use bequests to achieve philanthropic goals
Many patrons have provided for the Kennedy Center and the National Symphony
Orchestra through bequests and other planned gifts.
