As critical as annual cash gifts are to McCarter, bequests, deferred gifts and other tax planning approaches – or planned gifts – represent a unique and mutually beneficial way of giving.  Planned Gifts are a satisfying way to support McCarter and at the same time plan for your own financial security and that of your family.

Your legacy gift will help McCarter maintain the programs you have supported and cared about during your lifetime and ensures the continuation of a strong theater and performing arts center for the whole community.

Your gift will be added to McCarter’s Endowment Fund as permanent capital for the theater, with only the interest that accrues from the principal used to fund our programs.

Join the McCarter Heritage Society when you include the theater in your financial plans with any number of different gift planning options.

When Linda and Eloise joined the Heritage Society, they told us that they “... were very excited to include McCarter Theatre in our will, and join the ranks of the Heritage Society. How wonderful it is to be given this opportunity to let McCarter know of our intentions and to be recognized for our part in maintaining the theater’s position of excellence for generations to come.”
