Join The Hot Opera Legacy Society GIVE TO THE FUTURE

Hawaii Opera Theatre’s vision is to enrich and excite our community by presenting world-class performances of opera in Hawaii and to educate and inspire our youth to achieve a higher quality of life through music and opera. HOT is grateful for the generosity of the many individuals that have committed to the future artistic and financial strength of the organization through planned giving.

Many of our patrons have asked how they can provide support for HOT, and we wanted to mention several opportunities that may be of interest to you:

Gift Securities rather than Cash Receive income from your gift as well as a Tax Deduction Provide income to HOT while benefiting your loved ones Name HOT as the beneficiary of a Will, Living Trust, Retirement Plan, or Life Insurance Policy

Whatever your needs and preferences, there is a planned giving opportunity that can work for you. For information about any of these opportunities, please contact Tracy Jefferson at (808) 683.7203 or by email at t_jefferson@ hawaiiopera.org. If you have already named HOT as a beneficiary of your estate, please let us know so that we can recognize you now as a member of our Legacy Society and thank you for your future support.
