This critical underwriting supports the organization’s basic operations and programs, reinforcing our ability to save the historic homes and buildings that give Maine its unique character. 

The best way to support our mission is through a donation. Maine Preservation is a federal and state-registered charitable organization. It's only through your support that we are able to promote and preserve Maine’s historic places.

It’s easy to make a bequest in your will of either property or income to ensure future generations will remember your legacy. Maine Preservation has expertise in selling property and, if it is your wish, can protect buildings for future generations. A planned gift of an annuity can provide you with generated income over the span of your retirement. Please contact us for more information.

You can make a meaningful gift in memory or in honor of a special person in your life or a milestone event with a gift that supports Maine Preservation’s valuable work.  A letter commemorating your generosity will be sent to loved ones to let them know of your thoughtfulness.

We accept stock donations for membership, annual fund, and special campaigns. Please contact Development Director, Gina Lamarche at Gina@MainePreservation.org or (207) 847-3577 to find out more about making a gift of stock.
