Ways to Give

The German-American Heritage Foundation of the USA®, a nonprofit organization, is supported entirely by donations. In addition to becoming a member, there are many more ways in which you can ensure that our German American heritage continues to be promoted and recognized.

Gift Planning
Planned giving, deferred gift, legacy gift, or estate gift—different names for a way to manage your affairs, plan for the future, and make a gift to the German-American Heritage Foundation.

Matching Gifts
Your employer may match your charitable donations, multiplying the impact of your gift. If your organization has a matching gift program, please send us the appropriate form along with your gift. Your gift will be doubly appreciated.

Honorary/Memorial Gift
Honor or memorialize your loved ones with a gift to the German-American Heritage Foundation. We will send a special acknowledgment for an honorary or memorial gift. To make a gift of remembrance please contact us.

Gifts-in-Kind
The German-American Heritage Foundation welcomes gifts from your personal collection that will enhance our German-American Heritage Museum. To determine if your gift is a match for the German-American Heritage Foundation, please contact us.

Start A Scholarship Program
You can establish either an annual scholarship or an endowed scholarship program to reward academic excellence or support financial need. We will work with you to outline the details. For more information, please contact us.
