Annual Gifts

Annual donors get free access to Bristol Hills Historical Society programs and their support sustains the organization. They also receive a members-only newsletter. New and renewed memberships are now handled online via this website that we have set up. You will receive email reminders to renew annually, but we do not bill you automatically.

Support levels are $15 for one person, $30 for a family. If you can afford to give more, our Partner level is $40, Patron membership is $50, and Benefactor membership is $100. The Bristol Hills Historical Society is a Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization. All donations are deemed tax-deductible absent any limitations on deductibility applicable to a particular taxpayer.

If you are unable or unwilling to join or renew through our online system, please print and complete the attached form and mail to the treasurer (his address is listed on the form).

This link takes you to our online membership system, where you can check on your membership status and update our records with your contact information or change your level of support.

Single Donations

We appreciate donations that will help us maintain our historic buildings and preserve local history by acquiring documents and ephemera as they come available. After a pause in public events and fund-raising in the 2020-21 pandemic, we had to make costly repairs to the Grange Hall (new roof, foundation and drainage repair) and the church. Many more repairs, particularly to the church’s precious windows and building, are needed. Please consider donating to the Society to help us preserve these buildings and continue our educational work. The Bristol Hills Historical Society is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. All donations are deemed tax-deductible absent any limitations on deductibility applicable to a particular taxpayer. Click on the link below to donate or send your donation to:
