The History Museum relies upon, and is truly grateful for, the support of its visitors, volunteers and members. With the help of its supporters, the Museum has grown from a small store-front museum in downtown Springfield to a regionally recognized institution. Memberships are the backbone of the Museum and we encourage you to join the hundreds of people who currently support the Museum through membership. Volunteers are another vital part of The History Museum. Without them we would not have many of the programs and activities that help bring our local history to the public.
Volunteers serve in a number of capacities, depending on their strengths and interests.
Some give tours to school groups or help catalog the collections. The Heritage Society is a growing group of corporate sponsors whose goal is to provide The History Museum with a solid financial base for the future. If your business is interested in being a part of this effort, please contact the Museum for more information. This site makes it possible for you to contribute to any non-profit organization in the United States. You determine the amount and you determine how much personal information you want the organization to receive.
