The Scottdale Historical Society is a 501 (c)3 organization and our only means of support is through the generosity of people in the community who understand the importance of protecting and preserving the rich history of our community. Your donations are tax deductable.
Here is our current wish list. We will post the status of these wishes a regular basis. The dollar amount is the cost if we buy the item. Any financial donation can help purchase the items or meet other needs including the everyday running expenses.
- Gift Cards for Home Depot, Lowes, Ace Hardware or Wal-Mart are helpful for emergency and miscellaneous items.
- Items donated as a tribute, may be recognized with a small placard.
As always, you may contact us for more information or to grant our wishes!
