NEW DEDUCTION FOR 2020
The CARES Act, which went into effect this spring, established a new above-the-line deduction for charitable giving. You can write off up to $300 in cash donations on your 2020 income tax return, which you’ll be filing next spring. Normally, you’d have to itemize deductions to write off charitable giving when you file your taxes.  If you make a donation before December 31, 2020 to The Berwick Historical Society, you can take advantage of this $300 write off.
Just go to our donations page or mail a check to The Berwick Historical Society, PO BOX 301, Berwick, PA 18603.

Thank You!

Volunteers

 MEET OUR VOLUNTEERS    

 

Diane Labour   Judy Andres   Carin Lewis

All three of these ladies are very involved with The  Berwick Historical Society.  Diane is in charge of organizing the Mansion Maids which clean the Jackson Mansion and Judy and Carin are part of this crew. They also clean all of the societies properties, headquarters, and gardens.  Diane, Judy, and Carin, also help at the David A. Sadock House, the Carriage House Gift Shoppe, and with tours and events at the Jackson Mansion.  All three bake for events and Carin usually can be found down in the kitchen organizing all of the food for the events.  If you come to an event, you are sure to see one if not all three of these hard working individuals.  We are grateful for all of their talents and contributions to The Berwick Historical Society.  

 

More volunteers coming shortly.  

 We always have a need for volunteers.  Desk attendents needed in the museum, tour guides for the Jackson Mansion, and gift shop attendants.
