Planned Giving
Leave a gift that will inspire future generations through science education.
If the Houston Museum of Natural Science has enriched your life, you may wish to consider making a planned gift that will help further the Museum’s mission of scientific outreach for years to come. Those who make planned gifts to the Museum are granted membership into the HMNS Legacy Society. Legacy Society membership does not involve any dues or fees, but it does allow us to thank you today for the support you are providing to the Museum tomorrow. As a Legacy Society member, you will receive invitations to select donor events, special recognition, and more. If you have already included the Museum in your estate plan, we hope you will let us know and join the HMNS Legacy Society.
Ways to Plan a Gift
- Name the Museum as a beneficiary of your will
- Designate the Museum as a beneficiary of retirement assets including an IRA, 401 K, 403 B or other pension plans
- Donate a life insurance policy to the Museum or simply name it as a beneficiary
- Create a charitable trust with the Museum
- Establish a charitable gift annuity through the Museum
- Promise a gift of artifact(s) that the Museum has agreed to accept
