...philanthropy that is woven into your long-term financial planning.

What are the legacies of your ancestors?

In part, you are! 

There are many ways to leave a legacy, and for those who value family history, there are creative ways to support the New England Historic Genealogical Society. In fact, legacy giving (or “planned giving”) can benefit NEHGS, you, and your loved ones all at the same time.

NEW for 2024: Higher ACGA rates could mean more income for you.

In gratitude for your partnership, NEHGS is proud to offer you FreeWill – a free, online tool that walks you through the process of writing a legally valid will. It typically takes less than 25 minutes! At the end, you can download and sign your legal will.
