Planned
Giving
We invite you to join the Cadenza Society, a group of committed donors who ensure that their tradition of support continues well into the future by providing for Settlement through their estate plans.
Your participation sets an important example for others, and awareness of your intentions will help Settlement Music School plan for the future and maintain our financial security. Most importantly, you will have the satisfaction of making a lasting expression of support and creating a legacy of transforming lives and making a difference in the world through arts education.
We thank the growing number of friends who have chosen to make an investment in the future of our School. Many have committed to leaving a lasting legacy by remembering Settlement in their wills and living trusts. Others prefer to make tax-advantaged gifts during their lifetimes, such as gifts of stock or distributions through their retirement funds.
