You can include a bequest for Lyric in your will or trust, or name Lyric as the beneficiary of
your IRA, retirement plan, or life insurance policy. You can also use charitable gift annuities,
other charitable trusts, or even real estate to make a planned gift to Lyric.
PLANNED GIFTS
Lyric is fortunate to have had thousands of loyal subscribers and ticket buyers who have been thrilled
for more than sixty years by the operas they have seen here. If you are one of these dedicated opera
lovers, consider leaving part of your estate to Lyric Opera of Chicago.
Planned giving is a meaningful way to help Lyric continue to produce grand opera at the highest
possible level and ensure that opera will be enjoyed for years to come. All planned givers are invited
to join The Overture Society, and enjoy exclusive benefits of membership.
For more information, please contact Jonathan Siner, Lyric’s Senior Director of Planned Giving, at
312.827.5677 or or Mike Biver, Director of Planned Giving, at 312.827. 5655
