Legacy gifts to the museum:

A planned gift is a special way to support the Stratford Perth Museum.

You can remember us in your will with a bequest, make a gift of life insurance, donate a gift of stock or make another gift. By making a planned gift, you’ll be leaving an inspired legacy that will continue the important historical voice of the museum far into the future.  Planned giving donors become part of the Stratford Perth Museum family, an integral part of our history.  You’ll be invited to recognition events, special tours and education seminars. You may have your name or your family’s name listed in Foundation publications, or if you prefer, your gift can remain anonymous.

A planned gift can also provide you or your heirs with significant tax benefits.  Your lawyer,
accountant, financial planner or insurance agent can help you determine what kind of planned gift would be best for you, your family and your estate.

 When you leave your information below, you will be contacted by our General Manager John Kastner, for a confidential conversation about planned giving.

John can be reached at 519-393-5312 or johnkastner@stratfordperthmuseum.ca
