Annual Fund

The Hudson River Museum is proud to bring a world-class museum experience to you and all in our region. Your gift to the Annual Fund provides the critical yet most difficult-to-find funding: general operating support.

Donate monthly

At the Hudson River Museum, we believe that everything—and everyone—has a story and that these narratives have the power to unify us. Connections can be found in every corner of the Museum, from the thousands of visitors exploring the cosmos in our Planetarium and learning about our ecosystem along the Hudson, to experiencing world-class art that sparks new perspectives in our galleries and our historic home, Glenview.

Your tax-deductible donation helps us support not just the Museum but the many stories we collectively create and share together. Every contribution—big or small—makes a lasting impact and 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.
