You Are Invited to preserve and share in Maryland's past.

Traditionally membership and annual giving are separate programs that comprise the cornerstone of donor support. Now combined into one program, member contributor, you will continue to enjoy the benefits of membership while providing much needed support for the important work of the MdHS. As a member contributor of the MdHS, you will enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that your annual donation is helping to continue our mission. At the same time the MdHS will be better able to serve you and provide you with a greater array of benefits.

The MdHS seeks to illuminate the past, lend perspective to the present, and inform the future through the acquisition, preservation, and interpretation of manuscripts, archives, and objects that together form the fabric of Maryland history.
