Donate to the Smithsonian Institution Archives

Support the Archives

Thank you for your interest in supporting the work of the Smithsonian Institution Archives, which collects, preserves, and makes available the records of the Smithsonian Institution that document people, events, facilities, and research related to the Institution. We depend on friends like you to make it possible for us to continue to support the core mission of the Smithsonian, "the increase and diffusion of knowledge."

Please contact us if you would like to donate to the Archives. We will contact you with the current options for making a donation upon receipt of your inquiry.  In the near future, an online donation option will be available.

For information on donating collections to the Archives, visit Donations and Donors on the Archives FAQ.
