Leave a lasting legacy by including the Academy of Science in your estate plans. Your planned gift will help ensure that our work continues for generations to come. You may use the following language in a bequest:
I give, devise, and bequeath to The Academy of Science of St. Louis, a nonprofit organization located in St. Louis, Missouri, the sum of $________ (or _____% of my estate, or the residue of my estate) to be used for its general charitable purposes as determined by its Board of Directors.
For individuals 70.5 years of age or older, making a gift directly from your IRA is a great way to meet an annual required distribution and make a larger tax-free charitable gift. Please contact John Nahon at jnahon@academyofsciencestl.org for more information and wire transfer instructions.
Making a gift of appreciated stock shares allows you to claim a charitable tax deduction for the full market value. The Academy of Science sells the stock, meaning you will not pay a capital gains tax.
The Academy of Science of St. Louis is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization and all donations are tax-deductible within the limits established by the IRS. Thank you for your support!
