Planned Giving

Bequests and Other Planned Gifts

If you are like most people, you would like to leave some kind of lasting legacy to show that your life has made a difference in society; that in some way you have contributed to an important work or cause that will benefit the lives of others for generations to come. A planned gift to the Toledo Museum of Art will continue your legacy.

If you have already included the Toledo Museum of Art in your estate plans, please let us know by calling us or filling out our estate intention form. We would like to assist you in making certain your intentions will be carried out.

If you have not written a will yet, regardless of your charitable intent, please consider this.

There are as many different ways to support the Toledo Museum of Art as there are needs for your support. To see our chart describing some of the charitable means that are available to you - see How Can I...?
