MAY 7th IS GIVE STL DAY!
I’m reaching out to invite you to be part of something meaningful—preserving a historic property that tells an important story in our community.
The Historic Hawken House Museum is more than just a building—it’s a living connection to our past. From its architecture to the stories held within its walls, it reflects the people, culture, and moments that shaped who we are today. But like many historic places, it needs care and support to remain standing for future generations.
We are currently working to install a new roof, gutters, window ledges, and clean up all of the gardens and we cannot do it without help from people who value history and community.
Your gift will support the efforts of this mostly volunteer organization and we are grateful for your donation and support.
Thank you for helping keep history alive!
