Other Ways to Give

Annual Fund & Special Campaigns

Make a gift of cash securely online and choose where you want your donation to be spent.

Giving Societies

The Village offers several opportunties for donors to partner with others with similar interests and receive exclusive benefits.

Appreciated Securities

A popular alternative to a cash gift because it avoids capital gains tax on securities held long-term and provides an income tax deduction equal to the fair market value on the date of transfer.

Stock Transfer
Provide your broker with the following information:

OSV Broker: George P. Leasca
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney
100 Front Street, 15th Floor
Worcester, MA 01608

OSV Broker Phone Number: 508-791-2311

Morgan Stanley DTC Number: 0015

Account Name: Old Sturbridge Village

Account Number: 357901522-208

Once you have spoken to your broker please contact the Development Department at 508-347-0253 or via email with the details so that we can properly credit your gift.

Depreciated Securities

You may consider selling depreciated securities, declaring the capital loss, and donating the sale proceeds. The gift of cash is then deductible and the capital loss can help offset capital gains in the current year or be carried over into future years.

Matching Gifts

You can often double your gift if you, your spouse or your partner work for a company with a matching gift program.

Life Gifts

Join the George Washington Wells Society and you can choose from options including Charitable Gift Annuities, Charitable Remainder Trusts, and remembering Old Sturbridge Village in your will.

 

For more information about any of these options contact the Development Department at 508-347-0253 or by e-mail.
