Reciprocal Membership

Chicago Scots

Are you Scottish by birth, by heritage or simply by inclination?

Kinship for All

Chicago Scots is proud to partner with the National Trust for Scotland Foundation USA (NTS USA) on an exciting reciprocal membership program that includes travel benefits in Scotland for Chicago Scots members.

Now, in addition to receiving local benefits and supporting Chicago Scots elder care mission at Caledonia Senior Living & Memory Care, every new and renewing member at Chicago Scots will receive a membership card from NTS USA for complimentary access to all NTS heritage sites in Scotland.

Chicago Scots joined NTS USA this year as a Partner Organization to invest in protecting Scotland’s natural and cultural heritage. We did it for Scotland and we did it to honor our loyal members. The strength and support of our members sustained our impeccable record of safety at Caledonia Senior Living throughout the pandemic. A joint membership program with NTS USA is a heartfelt thank you!

Membership is a great way to nourish your Scottish identity and support our elder care mission.
