Since 1921, the Windsor Historical Society has collected
objects that embody Windsor's past so we can share their
stories with future generations.
As our collection and educational programs grow, so does
the need to preserve, exhibit, and share these collected
treasures and stories of our past and to preserve them
for the future.
We invite you to help us meet this challenge by
contributing to the Windsor Historical Society’s Annual
Fund, which signifies support above and beyond dues for
membership.
Annual appeals in the past three years have funded:
·
Improved climate control in collection storage areas
·
Acquisition of a locally made, flat-top, cherry high chest
(c.1760)
·
Continued publication of our popular newsletter
·
Our first long-range plan
As a result of annual appeals and other fundraising
initiatives over the past three years, we are proud to
report that the Windsor Historical Society now raises
one-third of our annual operating budget. We are less
constrained by the availability of endowment income than
ever before. This growing financial independence is a
healthy response to these recessionary times.
The success of the Windsor Historical Society—past,
present, and future—has depended and continues to depend
on the generosity of those who support our mission.
We welcome your support through tax-deductible outright
gifts, bequests, and other planned gift agreements.
Such gifts are one way of ensuring that you and the
things you care most about are long remembered.
To discuss these or other giving opportunities, contact
Christine Ermenc, Executive Director, at 860-688-3813 or
cermenc@windsorhistoricalsociety.org.
