Gifts in Your Will

When planning your estate, it is important to consider your family before any other gifts are considered. If you choose to provide a gift in your will to the Children’s Museum of Oak Ridge (CMOR) we would be honored and grateful. A planned gift to CMOR will further the Museum’s mission to enrich the lives of children and families and preserve Oak Ridge’s unique history.

Gifts can be made to CMOR’s endowment at the East Tennessee Foundation, or directly to CMOR, a 501(c)3 nonprofit. It is easiest for CMOR to administer gifts that are unrestricted and can be used for general needs for the advancement of programs and exhibits.

To make a gift to CMOR, we suggest that you begin by contacting your financial advisor to discuss your giving options. Here is some information that will help get you started.

General information about planned giving can be found at Leave a Legacy.
