Create Your Legacy of Freedom

Heritage was created to be your voice in Washington. No matter what the media says or which direction the political winds may blow, freedom-loving Americans need a permanent and unwavering institution to defend the principles they hold dear. The real kind of leadership and problem solving America needs—not the Leftist rhetoric or the violent outbreaks seen on the news—depends on sound, constitutionally-based ideas, impeccable research, effective marketing, principled leadership, and true accountability—everything Heritage is uniquely able to deploy thanks to members like you.

Preserve the America You Love

Your support of The Heritage Foundation clearly shows how much you love America. And if you love America, you know now is the time to roll up our sleeves, reclaim lost ground, and boldly advance the flag of freedom for our children and grandchildren. For far too long, we’ve seen the founding principles that make America the greatest nation on earth mocked and systematically weakened by the Left. Radical Leftists are clamoring for ways to block our efforts while Congress struggles to find its backbone on hard decisions. There will always be a need for a respected and principled Heritage to provide the ideas, solutions, and accountability Washington so desperately needs.

Your Legacy Gift has the Power to…

…defend our Constitution and counter radical Leftist policies with conservative solutions that help children, students, families, business owners, and virtually every segment of our society.

…train Congressional staff and lawmakers to effectively communicate, advance, and defend America’s constitutional principles.

…inform the American people through compelling research, media appearances, and original news reporting.

…educate the next generation of conservative leaders through our Young Leaders Program, whose graduates have already assumed positions of leadership everywhere from private business to Congress.

…provide leadership to conservative, free market organizations around the country and abroad so they can have a stronger impact in their communities.

Gifts by Will or Living Trust

A bequest to Heritage can be a gift of a specific dollar amount, a specific piece of property, a percentage of an estate, or all or part of the residue of an estate. You can also name Heritage as a contingent beneficiary if someone named in your will is no longer living. You may make a bequest to The Heritage Foundation by including the following words in your will:

“I give, devise, and bequeath to The Heritage Foundation, 214 Massachusetts Avenue, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20002 (here insert specific dollar amount; percentage of estate; percentage of the residual of your estate; or describe property) to be used for its educational purposes.”

This language can be added to an existing will very easily and at minimal expense. It is recommended that an attorney provide assistance. The Heritage Foundation’s federal tax identification number is 23-7327730.
