Planned Giving


An estate gift to Shedd creates a lasting legacy for you and your family. 

Gifts through estate plans are placed in a board-designated endowment fund. Funds are used to support the continued growth and leadership of Shedd Aquarium for generations to come — connecting them to the natural world and inspiring them to become stewards of the Earth.

We recognize that planning your estate is a very personal thing, but we encourage you to remember Shedd when you think about your legacy. Please contact the Development Office at 312-692-3153 or at estateplanning@sheddaquarium.org.

 

You don’t have to be a millionaire to make a meaningful gift to Shedd. We have planned-giving programs to fit a range of income levels.
