  What is Planned Giving? Connecting donor legacies with your organization's mission

  Join Maine Planned Giving Council Board Members Rebecca Lazure of Bates College and Ian Tovell of Habitat for Humanity Bath as they introduce the basics of what planned giving is all about.  Wills, Trusts, Estate Planning, and more are all part of the tool box for non profit executives and development staff to include in their quest for the longterm sustainablity of their organization.  Learn how the Maine Planned Giving Council can help build the professional skills to accomplish your mission.

  This roundtable discussion program is being presented free of charge for all as a partnership between Maine Archives & Museums and the Maine Planned Giving Council, and the information provided will be relevant to all nonprofits (particularly smaller ones!).

  This program is free for all, advance registration is required.

  MAM Summer Intern Lightning Round

  Join MAM as we showcase the amazing work being done by interns throughout the state this summer. Interns will have an opportunity to give brief presentations on the work they are doing over the summer as they assist in vital work for our member institutions and gain the skills that will help them as they pursue careers in museums and archives after graduation.

  Stay tuned for the full list of participating institutions and interns! 

  This program is free for all, advance registration is required. 
  

  Do you have interns at your site? Maine Archives & Museums (MAM) members are encouraged to share this free professional development opportunity with interns at their sites!

  The commitment: 

  Interns will share 5-minute presentations on their summer projects and experiences in a virtual meeting at 12 pm on Tuesday, August 4^th. If they would like to include audio/visual materials, they are welcome to share their screen during the presentation. 

  There will be an optional short check-in the week before the event so that presenters know what to expect. 

  The benefits: 

  This public speaking opportunity is a resume piece and can double as a learning outcome for the summer internship. Interns may also find it useful to have this presentation ready to share with their host site and school. We will be promoting this event to MAM members to join for free, so there will be a virtual audience of fellow interns, MAM members, and potentially future employers. 

  How to join: 

  Please fill out this form if you think interns at your site would like to join, and we will follow up with more details as the program develops.
