How Much Should You Give?
A memorial or honorarium donation can be as large or as small as you would like. It is the thought that counts, whether you give rod’s worth in honor of a close loved one ($16.50) or go for a whole portage, it’s up to you. You will receive a receipt for your gift – be sure to keep it, as memorial an honorarium donations to the Friends are all 100% tax deductible.
Honored a Living Person with a Gift Membership
Celebrate a milestone or say thank you through giving an honorarium gift that goes to work protecting the Boundary Waters.
We’ll notify the person, and send them membership benefits and mail them our quarterly newsletter!
