A Lasting Gift to CGOA

By remembering CGOA in your estate plan, you can provide a legacy for local musicians, students, and music lovers. A gift of stock, IRA rollover or beneficiary designation, real estate, life insurance policy, or a direct bequest will help ensure that CGOA continues to provide for the cultural enrichment, learning, and engagement of future participants and audience members.

CGOA’s Legacy Circle was established to recognize those who have remembered the Columbia Gorge Orchestra Association in their estate planning. Legacy Circle members are listed in our printed concert programs. We would be happy to discuss personalized recognition options with you as well.

“Recently I found enough extra time on my hands that I had to take ‘procrastination’ off my list of things to do. While estate planning was certainly a bucket list activity, it felt wonderful to finally replace it with a bequest to CGOA.”

– Alison Hodges, Legacy Circle member
