Giving a gift membership is a wonderful way to commemorate a life event. Celebrate a birthday, holiday, wedding, anniversary, graduation, new job, promotion, or retirement. Support a colleague’s hobby or friend’s long-standing interest. Introduce a young person to the fascinating world of invertebrates. The recipient will receive notification of your gift and a complimentary copy of the most current issue of our member magazine Wings: Essays on Invertebrate Conservation.
There are two options for giving a gift membership:
Option 1: $25 for a one-year membership
Option 2: $35 for a one-year membership PLUS a copy of the Pollinator Conservation Handbook, our popular guide to creating and managing habitat for pollinators (a savings of $13.00 off the regular retail price)
Give an honorary or memorial gift
Commemorate a life event or pay tribute to a special person with your donation. A gift in honor of a relative or friend is a wonderful way to celebrate a birthday, graduation, wedding, or retirement. Donating to the Xerces Society is also a great way to honor the memory of a loved one or special friend. For both honorary and memorial gifts, please provide your name and address so that we can acknowledge your tax-deductible gift, as well as the name and address of the recipient and the reason for the gift (for honorary gifts) or next-of-kin or family member (for memorial gifts). We will send a card announcing your thoughtfulness. Please indicate whether your gift is honorary or memorial. To give an honorary or memorial, please call us at (503) 232-6639 with your MasterCard or VISA information.
Bequests, donations of stock, and major gifts
For many, remembering a favorite organization in their will is an important legacy. Others prefer giving securities (stock), or would like to make a large impact on a specific project by contributing in support of that program. Please contact Scott Black if you are interested in discussing these options.
In-kind gifts
If you are in the Portland (OR) metropolitan area, you might wonder if our office needs equipment, supplies, books, or other items. We gladly accept these in-kind gifts, but only if we can really use them. Please contact us first for more information.
