Dear Friends,

Not everyone knows that we operate as an independent non profit organization, receiving only 9% of our annual budget from the federal government.

You heard that right! Even though we are a National Historic Site, it takes generous people like you to make up 91% of the income needed to open our doors.

Please join us in bringing art, history, beauty and joy to thousands of people every year.

Thank you for all you do.

Sincerely,

Board of Trustees, Thomas Cole National Historic Site
