Leave a Gift with your DAF

Field Trip to the Thompson Cabin in 1995

Our Manitowoc County Historical Society Museum and Pinecrest Village is a place that inspires people of all ages to experience and learn more about science, history, art, and nature. An inspiration of curiosity and learning, we are a place that relies on generous supporters like you.

Philanthropic support comes in all shapes and sizes–from one-time gifts to legacy gifts. You can make a gift directly to our Manitowoc County Historical Society from your donor-advised fund (DAF).

The donor-advised fund (DAF) is becoming an increasingly popular way to make a charitable gift. DAFs can provide you with immediate tax benefits while making your charitable giving easier. Here are two simple ways you can make a gift through your DAF:

  • Make an outright gift by suggesting a grant to the Manitowoc County Historical Society.

  • Designate the Manitowoc County Historical Society to receive all or a portion of the fund value upon the termination of the fund.  

You can select the option that best suits your philanthropic and financial goals to support MCHS. When you include our Manitowoc County Historical Society in your planned giving, your generosity helps:

• Fund important restoration work to our historic structures.

• Support artifact preservation, conservation, and acquisition.

• Enhance educational programming and living history experiences for guests of all ages.

• Sustain the museum’s role as a gathering place that bridges communities and connects generations.

You can easily recommend a grant through your DAF by visiting your trustee’s platform (such as Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, or Vanguard Charitable) using the information below:

Legal Name: Manitowoc County Historical Society, Inc.

Address: 924 Pinecrest Road, Manitowoc WI 54220

Federal Tax ID: 23-7022183

You can further leave a legacy of learning and preservation by naming the Manitowoc County Historical Society as a beneficiary of your DAF or including us in your estate plans. If you’re not ready to give through a DAF, you can still make a difference today. Every gift — of any size — helps our Museum and Pinecrest Village continue to offer engaging programs, community resources, and educational opportunities for generations to come.

Thank you for helping us preserve our shared heritage and inspire the future!
