Annual Fund
Today is #GivingTuesday! On this global day of giving, please take a moment to make a donation to the Hudson River Museum—any amount makes a difference!
ALL who donate on Tuesday, November 28 will have their name appear on a wrapped present in our beautiful wooden sleigh on display in Glenview historic home. Help us reach our goal of $10,000! Your gift directly supports HRM’s mission and programs.
The HRM is a place for impactful “firsts.” Whether it’s our Junior Docents experiencing their first step into a position of leadership, a budding elementary student scientist’s first exposure to the cosmos in the Planetarium, or an emerging artist’s first solo exhibition, the HRM is a place where many new experiences occur that lead to transformational change. Help us ensure that more impactful firsts happen here throughout the year.
Your tax-deductible donation is essential to providing a vibrant future for the Museum. We appreciate that generosity every day.
You can also donate by calling (914) 963-4550 x217, or sending a check payable to the Hudson River Museum to 511 Warburton Avenue, Yonkers, NY 10701.
Donors of gifts of $250 and above are recognized on our Annual Donor Board and Our Supporters page.
