Membership or Donations: Is there a difference?
Yes!
Members receive valuable benefits including the Deep Valley Sun newsletter which is filled with wonderful information about Lovelace, her books and society news, access to the ‘members only’ pages on our website, and valuable coupons and specials for the Betsy-Tacy Gift Shop.
Donors receive no goods or services in exchange for their tax-deductible gift.
We appreciate members as a part of our ‘Betsy-Tacy family’ —they help to tell our story to others. At the same time, we rely on outright donations for major expenses which dues and admissions do not cover, such as costly historic restoration and preservation. We invite you to consider helping the BTS even more by making a tax deductible gift today in addition to your membership enrollment.
Thank you for your support!
