Cape Cod Beach Waves

Since 1968, APCC has been honored by bequests from members and friends whose extraordinary remembrance has supported a long list of achievements and milestones in preservation and improvement of Cape Cod’s environment. Click Here to see a chronology. Including APCC in your will is an excellent way to ensure that your concern and love for Cape Cod will continue through action and advocacy.

A legacy gift is simple; a few lines in your will or estate plan, such as the sample below, which you can share with your legal advisor, will do a world of good:

“I bequeath (a specific dollar amount/_______percentage or the entire residue of my estate) to The Association to Preserve Cape Cod, 482 Main Street, Dennis MA 02638, tax ID number 04-2462788, to be used for the preservation, improvement, and protection of Cape Cod’s natural environment.

A legacy gift is also flexible because it can be revised at any time, can be made as a specific amount or a percentage of your estate, and provides a federal estate tax charitable deduction.

APCC’s Executive Director, Andrew Gottlieb, would be glad to provide further information should you wish to consult with him. Please call him at (508) 619-3185 or click here to leave your contact information for a prompt call or email.

As stewards of Cape Cod’s natural landscapes, APCC is deeply committed to protecting and enhancing our environment for present and future generations. In line with this commitment, we are excited to introduce FreeWill, a free and user-friendly tool designed to help anyone who doesn’t already have a will, get one done simply and without cost.
