Why should I support
the Delaware Historical Society when there are so many other
important charities that need my help?
History matters!
The Delaware
Historical Society is the largest private institution in the
State collecting, preserving and sharing our collective
heritage. In addition to hosting library researchers and
museum visitors, the Society is one of the largest providers
of student programs in the First State, and the home of
National History Day in Delaware. Your membership
support helps us to preserve and present priceless
collections and allows us to keep telling all of the
ever-expanding stories of Delaware’s past and present. Today
is already history!
The Delaware Historical Society also provides a wealth of
entertaining and educational exhibitions, programs, events
and publications that aren’t available from any other
organization in the State.
