Legacy Giving
A Gift for All Time
A bequest could be the most important charitable gift you ever make
BNRC has long-range goals for the Berkshires - and permanent obligations to keep conserved land open for use, benefit, and enjoyment of people who may not even be born yet.
Members of BNRC’s Schist & Marble Society are those whose impact on the Berkshires will last for all time.
- Schist … the rugged, erosition resistant rock that forms the spines of many of our scenic ridgelines
- Marble … the softer, sweeter rock in our valleys that nurtures a rare and diverse region of plants and animals
The beautiful balance supporting everything we cherish about the Berkshires is grounded in this bedrock, and is grounded by generus supporters like you.
Including BNRC in your legacy plans will ensure that what you value in the region will not be lost, but will be expanded and nurtured forever.
We Look Forward to Welcoming You to the Schist & Marble Society
BNRC would be honored to help you build your legacy
There are many types of legacy gifts:
