Giving to the Annual Fund

The Annual Fund of the York County History Center supports our mission, enabling us to showcase the importance of York County’s history. Donate today to support the organization in stewarding and sharing our region’s diverse history and collections. Your tax-deductible gift directly supports our educational opportunities, stewards our collections, public programs, and more.

Last year, through the generosity of individuals like you, the History Center was able to bring to life the York County experience for more than 26,500 onsite visitors through programs, exhibits and activities. Contributions to our Annual Fund enable us to maintain and research our growing collection of more than 300,000 York County artifacts and documents, including 8,800 genealogical records, more than 10,000 pieces of York-produced Pfaltzgraff pottery, and a York-made 2015 Pullman automobile! They help us tell stories about new and inspiring artifacts, exhibits and collections, such as the Squirrel Tail Bake Oven, Reddy Kilowatt, The Fiery Trial and Civil War Letters from Home. The contributions allow us to connect adults, students and their families with the York County culture and history through 50 educational programs, including the Homeschool Days, group tours and school field trips, and Articles of Confederation Day.

Help us celebrate our collective York County history by making a contribution to our Annual Fund. Your gift today will ensure that families and individuals, students and visitors, can continue to explore, learn and share the stories that make us a vibrant community.
