After taking care of the people you love, consider including Pride of Baltimore, Inc. in your will or estate plans.

A planned gift is an opportunity to sustain something remarkable. For nearly fifty years, Pride has carried Baltimore’s story beyond Baltimore, connecting people with the maritime heritage, craftsmanship, and traditions that helped shape our city and state.

Your legacy gift can help ensure that Pride of Baltimore II continues that journey for generations to come.

If you choose to include Pride in your will, we would be honored to recognize your commitment as a member of our Legacy Society.

Why leave a planned gift to Pride?

Since her launch in 1988, Pride II has sailed more than 300,000 nautical miles to over 200 ports in more than 40 countries, carrying Baltimore’s story to people around the world. Each voyage, port visit, public sail, and deck tour creates another opportunity for someone to experience Baltimore’s maritime heritage firsthand.

Your legacy gift helps ensure that Pride can continue that mission for generations to come.

Your gift could help:

• Care for and operate Pride of Baltimore II
• Support the professional crew who sail and care for her
• Welcome thousands of people aboard each year
• Bring Pride and Baltimore’s story to communities near and far
• Ensure future generations can experience the traditions and seamanship of a working Baltimore Clipper
