WAYS TO GIVE
Donations, Sponsorships, and More!
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Coos History Museum relies on generous supporters like you. For over 130 years, we’ve been the stewards of our community’s shared past—preserving stories, safeguarding artifacts, and making history accessible to all.
In a time when 1 in 10 museums—and 1 in 5 small museums—have permanently closed, your support has kept our doors open and our programs thriving. We do not receive direct public or federal funding, so every gift truly matters.
Your tax-deductible donation directly supports:
Hands-on educational programs for all ages
4th grade Native American history field trips
Free public access to our research library
Preservation and care of thousands of artifacts
Facility maintenance and essential upgrades
And so much more!
Now more than ever, museums need champions like you.
Help us protect the past and inspire the future. Click the button to donate today!
Thank you for being a part of our story.
