What’s your legacy? Consider making it productive farmland and healthy clam flats, special places to hunt, hike, fish, and explore close to home; places that make our part of Maine such a wonderful place to live, work, and play. Consider including Brunswick-Topsham Land Trust in your estate plans.
Whether you are taking those important first steps toward planning your estate or considering an update to your estate plan, Brunswick-Topsham Land Trust is here to help you achieve your long-term charitable goals. Through a planned gift to Brunswick-Topsham Land Trust, you can leave a legacy of peaceful forests, working farms, undeveloped coastlines, and picturesque vistas for our children and grandchildren.
Planned gifts come in all shapes and sizes, and each is an expression of a person’s desire to make a difference and leave a legacy that lasts forever.
