Weâre holding an emergency fundraiser to replace a failed roof on our museum buildings in Wildwood, NJ.
If youâre new to us: weâre a small nonprofit museum caring for a row of connected historic buildings that hold the townâs storiesâphotos, artifacts, and memories from generations of locals and visitors.
Thank you to everyone whoâs already givenâyouâre helping keep a roof over that history. The last few years have been tough: our income dropped after the street-sign fundraiser ended, we replaced one roof a few years ago, and now another section has failed. The leaks are significant, and with more rain on the way we need to act now. Weâve lined up a roofer; we need to raise $16,000+ to cover labor, materials, and waterproofing. Hopefully this is the last big roof job for a long while.
*Where your gift goes:* Wildwood Historic Societyâs Emergency Roof Repair Fundâ100% to the roof replacement (labor, materials, waterproofing) to stop the leaks and protect our collections.
Every dollar (and every share) keeps the buildingâand the stories insideâsafe and dry.

With gratitude,
