NEPA Gives

 


NEPA Gives is a generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities. By donating to the Wayne County Historical Society on June 6th & 7th you will help us in our mission to provide educational outreach programs and preserve local historic landmarks and artifacts.

Donations and membership dues help the WCHS care for a priceless collection, present engaging public programs and innovative exhibitions, and serve area students, teachers, and young people each year.

Your donation will also help us honor our responsibility of preserving our local historical assets, including the Old Stone Jail, Bethel School, D&H Canal Park at Lock 31, JB Park Farm Museum, Adam Jubinsky Building, and Main Museum in downtown Honesdale.


Donated funds will be used to purchase supplies for our programs, to plan upcoming exhibits, maintain our children's interactive History Lab, educational programs for all ages, and school trips and continue in the Research Library.

Click here to donate on June 6th & 7th to WCHS!
