Thanks to some recent very generous donors, we are at 70% of our goal! As required in our bylaws, the names of all donors are now posted at the House entrance (unless you want to be anonymous).

The Norwood Park Historical Society, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 1973 has owned the NSCH since 1987. Recent major expenditures included replacing the aging south fence in 2024 and the NSCH museum’s tear off roof replacement in 2025. Unfortunately for us, this year’s annual appeal monies, so far, proved to be insufficient to cover these much-needed upkeep costs, forcing us to dip into our reserves. A big thank you and much appreciation goes to those individuals and businesses that have already contributed to support our mission!

Please help us get to 100% of our needed goal. Your name will be noted.

THANK YOU.
