We are continuing with our Annual Appeal for fund raising. We are trying to raise $60,000 to balance our budget for the 2024 fiscal year. Donations can be made by check to the society at 31 Tenney Road, Braintree MA 02184. We are also looking for corporate sponsors to help us reach our Annual Appeal goal.

Over the last few months, BHS launched a new Volunteer Initiative. In our two very successful Volunteer Orientation sessions, a full house of Volunteers brought new energy, ideas, and enthusiasm about the incredible history and legacy of the Braintree Historical Society. Our goal for this Initiative is to increase our volunteers to 100 over the course of the coming year. Won't you join us?
