Partner with Newark Historical Society

Join us in keeping Newark's history alive!

The Newark Historical Society is looking to build meaningful partnerships with our business and corporate neighbors in support of our mission to gather, preserve and share Newark's history.

There are many benefits to partnering with NHS. 
  • Meet your philanthropic goals within the community
  • Demonstrate your commitment to preserving Newark's history (which your business is already a part of!)
  • Reach customers (and potentially find new ones) in an engaging new way

Below are some suggested donation levels, but if you want to do something more specific, we'd love to talk to you! We know that every business has different objectives, so we would be happy to customize a partnership plan that aligns your business goals with our strategic mission. Please reach out to us via e-mail to get the ball rolling: NewarkDeHistoryMuseum@gmail.com

Special Projects

Special Project donations are earmarked for specific projects as described below.  

Exhibit Builder: $250 Donation
Each season, NHS mounts new exhibits both in the museum and  off-site at our satellite locations throughout the community.  Exhibit builders help off-set the cost of developing these new exhibits.  Funds go towards costs associated with research, artifact and document acquisition, printing of display materials, props and fixtures.  Benefits include:
  • Public recognition via social media and our monthly e-newsletter
  • Company name listed as an Exhibit builder on our website
 ​

Digital Media Library Builder: $250 Donation
NHS possess many historical books, documents and photos in our collection. We would like to make these materials available for public access via a digital archive on our website. Digital Media Library builders will help offset the cost of developing this new historical society resource.  Funds will go towards costs associated with data entry and storage.
​

Special Events Builder: $250 Donation
​Walking tours, guest speakers and community events require a lot of resources to produce.  Special Events Builders help us offset the costs associated with developing, marketing and putting on special events.  
​

Don't Forget to Volunteer Time and Talent!
Does your business need to put in some volunteer hours as part of your community service goals?  We have many volunteer opportunities from one-and-done shifts to ongoing roles.  Please see our volunteer page for ways to get involved.  Businesses who partner with us will be in the running for our annual volunteer service award and will receive special recognition in social media, our monthly e-news and on our website!
