The Legacy Society
A national leader in history and civics education and a trusted affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, the Heinz History Center and family of museums bring history to life for hundreds of thousands of visitors each year.
Your extraordinary generosity ensures that visitors will connect with the region’s history for generations to come. They’ll have access to our nationally acclaimed history and civics education programs, can explore our iconic collections, and engage with marquee exhibitions that highlight the people who have shaped and continue to shape history in Western Pennsylvania.
Help us to inspire and empower future generations of history makers.
Legacy Gifts include:
Naming the History Center as a beneficiary in your estate planning, life insurance policies, gas royalties, IRAs and retirement plans, donor advised funds, and charitable remainder trusts.
Stock or appreciated securities and so much more!
Gifts of Appreciated Securities
Securities and mutual funds that have increased in value and been held for more than one year are popular assets to use when making a gift to Heinz History Center. Making a gift of appreciated securities or mutual funds offers you great tax advantages while supporting history-making moments.
Gifts of Stock
Gifts of appreciated stock can be donated to advance our mission—to support general operating needs, grow our endowment, or address capital improvement projects.
