Eric St. Jacques is the senior manager of Planned Giving at the Union of Concerned Scientists. Eric works with supporters who are interested in ensuring the future of science-based advocacy by leaving a gift to benefit UCS in their estate plans—namely through wills, trusts, retirement accounts and other financial accounts, or with charitable gift annuities. Further, he provides UCS membership with technical expertise and information about the benefits of current gifts from retirement accounts, donor-advised funds, and gifts of appreciated securities.
Prior to joining UCS, Eric worked as a development associate at the Savannah Music Festival. He earned a bachelor’s degree in history and education from the University of Massachusetts and a master’s degree in political science from Northeastern University. He is a member of the Planned Giving Group of New England and the National Association of Charitable Gift Planners.
