Heritage Society

The Heritage Society recognizes members who make planned gifts to support the Foundation. Join a group of distinguished women who are securing the financial future of our organization.

You can create a legacy that will impact generations of Tri Sigma women. Including the Tri Sigma Foundation in your estate plans is a wonderful way to leave your mark and provide enduring support for the causes you care about.

What is a planned gift?

Planning gifts are contributions that are arranged in the present and allocated at a future date. Planned gifts can take many forms, including bequests, charitable trusts, life insurance policies, and retirement plan assets. You can direct your planned gifts to support the Tri Sigma causes that mean the most to you—like leadership programs, scholarships, and Sigma Serves Children initiatives.

Join the Heritage Society

Tell us about your estate plans so we can celebrate your membership in the Heritage Society. Members receive a commemorative pin, annual recognition in publications, and special recognition at Tri Sigma's 2025 Convention. Contact us to get started.
