Tompkins County's History Matters!

Did you know that individual support makes up almost 40% of our funding? In short, our history would be lost and forgotten if not for the generosity of supporters just like you. When you make a gift to The History Center, you are joining a family dedicated to safeguarding the past and present of Tompkins County for future generations.

Ways To Give

1. Reoccurring Gifts - When you donate a reoccurring gift, you make an impact that lasts beyond today. Individuals who make a reoccurring gift as a part of our giving Tuesday campaign will be invited to a behind-the-scenes tour of the Exhibit Hall during the installation of our new exhibit. Carry the spirit of GivingTuesday through the entire year and learn what it takes to assemble a dynamic transportation exhibit.

We love partnering with Bloomerang to make sure we recognize and support all of our donors. The easiest way to donate online is through our secure portal using the button below - it's simple, safe, and allows us to record your information accurately.

2. Volunteer - Help us keep our exhibit hall open and free to the public. Sign up to volunteer today: Volunteer Application
