About the Emily Dickinson Museum Gift Planning Program
Planned giving pays it forward, but can also benefit you in the here and now. Gifts through your estate, gifts that pay you income, and other types of planned gifts support the Museum while delivering financial and tax benefits to you and your family.
The Emily Dickinson Museum is administered by its own Board of Governors and raises most of its own funds for operations, special projects, and capital projects. The Museum is owned by the Trustees of Amherst College and operates under the College’s federal tax identification number and IRS 501(c)(3) designation: #04-2103542.
The Emily Dickinson Museum’s gift planning program is offered through Amherst College, providing sophisticated investment management and high quality gift administration. We offer a wide array of products, such as charitable remainder annuity trusts and donor-advised funds, tailored to fulfill your philanthropic goals. Please see the Museum gift planning brochure for more information. You may also contact the development office with any questions at development@EmilyDickinsonMuseum.org.
