The Encore Society

Have you ever considered what kind of legacy you will leave? Thoughtful supporters of the Alabama Symphony Orchestra want their heirs to inherit a world that celebrates the arts. As a result, many donors are including the ASO in their estate plans. Through will provisions, trust instruments, life insurance policies and other giving opportunities, these donors are investing in the long-term future of the ASO.

A bequest is the most tangible way to have a lasting impact on the people and organizations that mean the most to you. With advanced planning, your family can also avoid paying income tax on the assets they receive from your estate, as well as estate taxes. Your legacy gift can be an effective way to support the ASO for generations to come, allowing your impact to last far beyond your years on earth. With the help of an advisor, you can include language in your will or trust specifying a gift to be made to family, friends, or the ASO. 

If you want to learn more about including the ASO in your estate plans, please contact Mandy Peterson Tiece, Director of Development, at 205.314.6958 or mptice@alabamasymphony.org. If you have already designated the ASO in your estate planning, please notify us so that we can honor you as a member of the Encore Society.  

We gratefully recognize members of the Encore Society for helping sustain music in our community.
