Planned Giving
Place Matters.
Since the founding of the Duxbury Rural & Historical Society (DRHS), bequests and other types of planned gifts have strengthened the DRHS’s endowment and financial sustainability, providing vital support for preserving the town’s history and rural character, for education and outreach, and for the maintenance and cost associated with the historic structures, collections and lands portfolio.
There are many ways to include the DRHS in your long-term plans that can benefit you and your loved ones, increase income, and reduce taxes, while fulfilling your charitable goals, including bequests and charitable gift annuities.
Should you choose to include the DRHS in your plans, we hope you will let us know so that we may welcome you into the DRHS’ Legacy Society: The DRHS Legacy Society is composed of donors who have named DRHS as a beneficiary of their estate planning through a bequest, insurance policy, or retirement fund or through the establishment of a charitable trust, or other planned gift. Membership in the DRHS Legacy Society involves no dues or obligations; it is a way for us to thank you and to recognize you for the thoughtful estate plans you’ve put in place. If you have made such a gift, please let us know in writing so we can include you in our growing list of Legacy Society members. Your commitment may also inspire similar generosity in others.
You can also learn more by contacting DRHS Executive Director at 781-934-6106 or emcgough@duxburyhistory.org.
We look forward to hearing from you!
