Planned Giving
In 1963, the Institute’s founders had no idea that IPS would progress from organizing against the Vietnam War and supporting the Civil Rights movement to being at the forefront of the feminist movement and the development of a new economic order that promotes just, sustainable trade and investment policies. For more than half a century, IPS has played the key role of providing public scholarship to cutting-edge social movements in the U.S. and the world.
We can’t predict what new issues will emerge in the next half century and beyond, but we do know that we will continue to provide the intellectual groundwork to support movement-building groups. We’ll also continue to speak with an unwavering independent voice and advocate for progressive social change.
Looking towards the future, IPS is intentionally mentoring a new generation of public scholars, with an emphasis on people from low-income backgrounds and from communities of color. They will be the next generation to build on the Institute’s legacy of inspiring progressive ideas and actions to serve people and the planet.
You can support these new generations of IPS scholars by remembering IPS in your estate plan and joining the Institute’s Next Generation Legacy Society. As a Society member, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing that your estate gift will help IPS support the movement for social change.
