Support Geneva's History

Renew or become a member of the Geneva History Museum during the month of May for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate to the Geneva History Museum. Gift certificates can be redeemed in the Gift Shop, for research services, or to pay for a program or event.

Make a donation to sustain the museum during May for a chance to win a $100 gift card to Stockholm's Brew Pub. Membership is important, however, it covers a very small portion of operating expenses. That is why your unrestricted donation is vital for the museum to preserve Geneva's history, and to offer engaging exhibitions, programs and events.

Become a Geneva GEM (Give Every Month) to elevate your donor level and create a consistent revenue stream to sustain GHM. GEMs receive an invitation to our private annual donors celebration.

Why we are Geneva GEMS...

"I choose to participate as a way to help honor and preserve the history of this community. A strong community believes and learns from it’s past in order to grow and foster it’s future. My donation may not be large but it is consistent which allows the Geneva History Museum to have some amount of financial stability." - Kelly Giffin Vass
