How do I leave a Legacy Gift to PAM?

​

Making a legacy gift from your estate is an intentional way of supporting the future ministry of the Presbyterian Association of Musicians. When PAM receives assets as a beneficiary under a will or trust after the donor's death, the gift is known as a "Legacy Gift." Legacy Gifts can be made from a variety of asset classes such as cash, securities, qualified retirement plan/ IRA assets, the death benefit from life insurance, or real estate.
