What is Planned Giving?
One of the greatest ways you can help protect the Hudson Valley is to support Scenic Hudson’s work beyond your lifetime. Planned gifts make that possible. There are many ways to include a generous future gift to Scenic Hudson in your plans, each with unique benefits to you, the donor. All forms of planned giving help Scenic Hudson carry on its mission of protecting and preserving the Hudson River Valley’s inspiring natural beauty forever.
Planned gifts are so named because such gifts must be carefully planned as part of the donor’s overall financial and estate planning. You may want to consult with a financial advisor or legal counsel when making a planned gift, as Scenic Hudson is not engaged in rendering legal or tax advisory services.
Hudson River Stewards
Members of our planned giving society, the Hudson River Stewards, are those who make a life-income gift or remember Scenic Hudson in their will or estate plan. Members enjoy an array of benefits, including invitations to special Scenic Hudson events, and listings in important publications, such as our Annual Report. Hudson River Stewards are supporters of Scenic Hudson who are committed to leaving the legacy of a protected and preserved Hudson River Valley.
