Give on Giving Tuesday

ABHS has set a goal of raising $3,000 on Giving Tuesday, November 29.  This comes after Black Friday and Cyber Monday.  One way to participate in our fundraising goal and Cyber Monday is to do your Amazon purchases through smile.amazon.com.  Choose American Baptist Historical Society to receive a small percentage of what you spend. Prices are the same as if you were using the regular Amazon web address.  You can also give on Giving Tuesday (or any time) through our secure donation site, just click on the GIVE NOW button to the right.

New collections arrive each week. Creating an inventory and simple finding aid for a small handful of records plus storage in our climate-controlled, secure space costs $50 annually.  Larger groups of records cost more to prepare for storage, as well as for the space required. For one collection of 38 cubic ft boxes, 31 minute books, and a few oversized items, storage costs alone are $1000 per year, with additional dollars required for staff care, archival materials, or assistance for and supervision of those who want to read these records.
