Supporting Aspen Historical Society’s endowment ensures the preservation of the upper Roaring Fork Valley’s rich history for future generations. There are several impactful ways to contribute:
Maximize your charitable impact by donating appreciated stocks directly. This method allows you to avoid capital gains tax and potentially receive a deduction for the full market value of the stocks.
Recommend a grant from your DAF to support the Aspen Historical Society. This flexible giving option allows you to manage your charitable donations and support our mission effortlessly.
Do you have an IRA, 401(k), life insurance policy, or any other assets not included in your will? Consider naming the Aspen Historical Society as a beneficiary. This can simplify the transfer process and ensure your legacy contributes to preserving Aspen’s history.
AHS has four restricted endowments in place totaling $580,000.
To protect and ensure the longevity of educational programming, fellowships, and research projects, fund the accessioning of collections, and the maintenance of four historic sites.
We welcome pledges of five years or less.
