Support PHS

  • There are many benefits in giving wisely to PHS.

    Read more below about ways you can make a transformative difference.

Planned Giving

Planned Giving is a simple, straight-forward way to realize significant tax advantages while making a meaningful gift to the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society. By leaving a gift to PHS in your estate plans, you will make a significant contribution to our mission without reducing the assets available to you in your lifetime. Gifts include:

• Gifts that pay you back throughout your lifetime
• Gifts that cost nothing in your lifetime
• Gifts that support the next generation
• Gifts that anyone can make

There are many ways you can select PHS as a beneficiary of your estate, and help ensure that our work to garden for the greater good will continue to strengthen our region far into the future. 

Gifts from IRA or Retirement Accounts

If you are 70½ or older, you can make a gift to PHS directly through your IRA without having to pay income tax on the money. Contact us to learn more.
