Support the Paine through a financial donation, or give your time by volunteering
The Paine is a private nonprofit organization that depends on the generosity of donors, members, sponsors, and volunteers to sustain its mission. Charitable support helps us care for the historic estate, gardens, and collections while also funding exhibitions, educational programs, and community experiences. Every gift helps ensure that the Paine remains a vital cultural resource now and for generations to come.
Annual Fund
Support the full scope of the Paine’s annual activities. This includes the continued care of the historic mansion, art collections, and gardens as well as the presentation of outstanding exhibitions and educational programs. Annual Fund gifts are fully tax-deductible.
Education Fund
Support quality learning experiences for children about historic architecture, art, and nature. These gifts also help ensure that children of all economic backgrounds are able to participate in programs. Education Fund gifts are fully tax-deductible.
Garden Fund
Support nearly four aces of botanical gardens that surround the historic mansion. Donations of $25, $50, and $100 support the annual plantings and care of the gardens. Gifts of $150, $300, $600, and $1200 are recognized with a plaque in a selected container throughout the season, and may also honor a special person, birthday, anniversary, or other occasion or entity. Gifts to the Garden Fund are fully tax-deductible. For questions about specific container locations and availability, please contact Annika Holland at (920) 235-6903 ext. 124 aholland@thepaine.org.
