Planned Gifts
Gifts to Olbrich Botanical Society made through
wills and estate plans provide ongoing support to the Gardens. Specific
bequests to the Olbrich Botanical Society can be made in a will or
trust, or the Society can be named as the beneficiary of a life insurance
policy, a gift annuity, or a retirement plan.
Unless otherwise designated,
these gifts are placed into the Olbrich's general endowment
fund, Olbrich Forever, which makes an annual distribution to support
the operations of the Gardens. This annual distribution is guaranteed,
which means that Olbrich will be here for many generations to come!
Gifts to support Olbrich Botanical Gardens should be directed to and/or made out to Olbrich Botanical Society, Inc. Olbrich Botanical Society is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization which partners with the City of Madison Parks Division to operate Olbrich Botanical Gardens. Our Federal Tax ID/EIN is 39-1357247.
