Why We Need Your Support

The Historic Gloria Dei Preservation Corporation does not receive government funding for our operations. All our projects and endeavors are made possible by the talent and dedication of our board of volunteers … And help from generous people like you.

Our funds primarily come from: unsolicited private contributions, donations from travelers, people who enjoy tours led by our board members and from grants. Your support is crucial for the preservation of this irreplaceable architectural and cultural landmark.

Any donation you make will help us do more to uncover hidden stories, repair this historic property and preserve this living history museum for future generations. Please donate as generously as you can to whatever option best fits your needs. You can make a one-time donation, support a specific project or become a sustainer.
