Honorary Acre Purchase Program

Build An Honorary Acre 

By making the gift of an Honorary Acre, you are not buying real property or an interest in real property. You are doing much more than that. You are donating to the Center, which will use the funds to buy, own and preserve the 240 acres where the historical townsite of Maxville was located. Additionally, included for your Honorary Acre, you will receive the coordinates at the center of the acre which your donation helped the Center purchase and will help the Center steward. The Center will also plant 240 trees to commemorate the 240 acres purchased, including the acre purchased with your donation; and finally, all donors to the Honorary Acre Program will be honored on a plaque which will be posted and featured in the center of the historical townsite of Maxville. 

*The coordinates for your Honorary Acre are symbolic for fundraising purposes only and do not create a lot, parcel, or unit of land for ownership or conveyance to the donor.*

Make an Acre Together

Maxville Heritage Interpretive Center wants to make sure any donor can participate in this community effort to preserve the historical site of Maxville, no matter their financial circumstances. In that spirit, donors who cannot give the gift of an entire Honorary Acre can contribute any amount they are able to Make an Acre. Their gifts will be pooled with other Make-an-Acre donors, and together, this pool of donors will form their own community and help the Center purchase, own, preserve and steward the historical townsite of Maxville, where funds are most needed.

*The coordinates for your "Make an Acre" are symbolic for fundraising purposes only and do not create a lot, parcel, or unit of land for ownership or conveyance to the donor.*
