The Golden Bear Society - Creating your Legacy

Cal Maritime has been a part of your life, and can also be a part of your legacy.
The Golden Bear Society honors those who choose to express their commitment to maritime education and provide for California Maritime Academy in their estate plans. Alumni and friends like you who have remembered Cal Maritime with a bequest or estate gift of $25,000 or more are invited to become a member of the Society.
Many estate planning options are available to Golden Bear Society Members and some may even provide you with income and other tax advantages. Your estate gift can be designated to the area of your choosing. Whether this means establishing an endowment for academic resources or providing scholarships for deserving cadets, your legacy gift ensures a successful future for Cal Maritime and its cadets.
