The Heritage Society Leave a legacy
Leaving a legacy gift in your will to the Academy is a meaningful way of supporting the next generation of engineers and the future of your profession. We greatly value bequests at all levels particularly those that allow our Trustees to direct funds towards areas of greatest need according to our strategic priorities.
Major Donations
Would you like to help find engineering solutions to the challenges our society faces? Significant major gifts can have a transformative impact on the Academy’s ability to support engineers solve complex global challenges.
Giving from overseas
We are delighted to have a number of supporters based internationally across Europe, Asia and North America. If you would like to make a donation from overseas, please do contact us and we will be happy to help you.
Giving tax-efficiently from the USA
At present, we do not have a 501(c)3 registered ‘Friends of’ organisation in USA, however we do have a number of individual and charitable trust supporters who have been able to make a tax-efficient, Donor Advised Gift from USA via CAF America. This takes approximately 4-6 weeks and does entail administration fees. There are other methods and organisations that can support giving from USA that your personal advisors may be best placed to advise on.
Matched giving
Does your company offer matched giving? Many employers will match charitable donations made by their employees, doubling the impact of your gift at no extra cost to you. Speak to your employer to see if your donation could go even further.
Charitable grants
We are pleased to work with a number of charitable trusts and foundations who support a broad range of our work from education programmes to sustainable development work across sub-Saharan Africa. Please see the Charitable trusts and foundations page for a full list of our current supporters.
If you have a connection to a trust or foundation who may be interested to learn more about our work we would be delighted to speak with you. Please contact Dominic Geyer, Trusts Manager via email at [email protected].
Corporate partnerships and sponsorships
We are seeking ambitious partners that share our values and, like us, believe that engineering lies at the heart of solving our shared challenges. Together, as partners, we can do more.
We are please to offer corporate partnership and sponsorship opportunities aligned to our activities and programmes, as well as specific areas of interest.
