Kurt Gottfried Society
To honor those caring donors who are providing for Union of Concerned Scientists through a planned giving arrangement, we created the Kurt Gottfried Society, named after our co-founder and longtime board member.
A highly accomplished physicist and the epitome of a concerned scientist, Kurt Gottfried has been a guiding voice in our pursuit of scientific integrity, a healthier planet, and a safer world. We are so grateful to Kurt for his service and his vision, from our organization’s inception to today.
The Kurt Gottfried Society is made up of a select group of members who, like Kurt, have a long-term vision for Union of Concerned Scientists and have informed us of their intention to make a legacy gift to the organization. The lasting contributions of these dedicated supporters are critical to safeguarding and strengthening Union of Concerned Scientists’ ability to develop long-term, far-reaching solutions for future generations.

Special Invitations
to participate in informative teleconferences and regional events with senior Union of Concerned Scientists staff members, scientists, and board members
Complimentary copies

“Policy change is not only the result but also the cause of broad cultural changes in values. For me, Union of Concerned Scientists is one of the most effective instruments we have for accomplishing this kind of change.”
