Planned gifts are the ultimate way to support BLO. Individuals who choose to honor BLO by including the Company in their estate plans become members of our Goldovsky Society, named for visionary teacher, stage director, conductor, and impresario Boris Goldovsky.

Make your giving work for you as well as BLO. Planned gifts can offer tax incentives in addition to creative ways to integrate your philanthropy with your family’s financial needs.
