Your bequest or planned gift makes you eligible for membership in the Gardiner Greene Hubbard Society. This is National Geographic's way of formally recognizing your support of our mission and thanking you for your generosity. Participation in the Hubbard Society can be anonymous.
Many people include the National Geographic Society in their wills and other estate plans without informing the Society. In these instances we never get a chance to acknowledge their invaluable support. Please know that you can let us know about your estate plans while keeping your gift anonymous.
Members of the Gardiner Greene Hubbard Society enjoy the following benefits:
- Invitations to exclusive receptions, exhibitions, and lectures in Washington, D.C., and across the U.S.
- A personalized membership certificate celebrating your dedication to the National Geographic Society
- The Society's gift-planning newsletter, Charting the Future, that contains financial and planning ideas for friends of National Geographic
- Recognition in National Geographic Mission Programs' annual report
