Support The Brattle
You make The Brattle the magical place that it is.
The Brattle is here today thanks to the support we receive from our supporters—people like you. When you donate to The Brattle, you support every single film we screen at our historic cinema including the curated, repertory programming model we use to present our film programming.
Your support matters now more than ever as we work to rebuild and recover from COVID. Audiences are coming back, but slowly. During this recovery period, contributions will be crucial to fund our film programming, pay our staff, and continue to make needed updates to our cinema space.
This is your Brattle. Just as you are the key to our past, you are fundamental to our future.
Please make a tax-deductible donation to The Brattle today.
Thank you!

Gift of Securities
Making a gift of securities, such as shares, stocks, and bonds, is an easy way to maximize your impact, and save big on your taxes. By donating appreciated securities directly to The Brattle rather than selling them, you avoid the capital gains tax that you would otherwise have to pay.
Before initiating a gift, please contact Ivy Moylan at 617-876-8021 or ivy@brattlefilm.org, so that we know to expect the securities you are donating and can promptly acknowledge your contribution.
Planned Giving
A gift to The Brattle in your will is an investment in the future of film and the culture of our great city. Your legacy gift will help transform the way people see the world through film for generations to come, and provide you with immediate or deferred tax benefits, customized to suit your personal goals.
Contact us to learn more or so we can assist you or your professional advisor on a confidential basis.
