Planned Giving

A wise investment and commitment to the future

Leaving a gift to Seamen’s Church Institute of Newport in your long-term financial or estate plan can make a lasting impact on our community and the lives of Newporters. Planned giving is a unique philanthropic tool that allows you to support the mission of Seamen’s Church Institute for years to come while also fulfilling your own financial goals.
