Ways to Give

The Hudson River Maritime Museum is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization which relies upon donations and memberships for daily operations. 

Your contribution helps us to engage kids and adults in free and low-cost educational programs and hands-on learning experiences, to safeguard and share our collection of over 1 million maritime-related artifacts, to serve as a townhall for community gatherings and workshop spaces, and much more.
​There are many meaningful ways to support the Hudson River Maritime Museum, some of which offer increased tax benefits.
Whether you prefer to give a one-time donation, set up recurring contributions, explore legacy giving, or use a donor-advised fund, we offer flexible giving options to suit your values and charitable objectives.

One-time or Monthly Donation
