Planned Giving and Endowment

“Memories of our lives, of our works and our deeds will continue in others”. Rosa Parks

Whether you think of yourself as rich or poor, or somewhere in between, your gift can make a difference. Even a small amount can have a big impact over time. It’s easy. By including a charitable gift in your will or estate plan, you can help to continue the important work of Friends of Birmingham Botanical Gardens well into the future. A simple directive in your will can continue to make a difference in the lives that follow, and will create the vision we share to make our gardens one of the preeminent gardens of the country.

We would welcome talking with you to discuss your options. For more information about how to include The Friends in your will, or to let us know that you have already included us in your estate plans, please contact our Development Office at (205) 414-3961. All conversations are strictly confidential.
