Support the Museum

The National Postal Museum Relies on You

Giving and Sharing stamp

Through the unique lens of postal history, the National Postal Museum educates, challenges, and inspires millions of visitors every year about what it means to be an American – free of charge. Part of the Smithsonian Institution, the Museum receives federal funding, but those funds cover only a portion of what’s needed to maintain our collections, exhibitions, and programming.

The rest comes from people like you. Your gift of any amount is a critical source of support that enables us to build compelling exhibitions, achieve the highest standards in conservation and research, and maintain a tradition of excellence for which the Smithsonian is world-renowned.

Help us tell America’s story with your gift today. Thank you.
