The Historical Society of Forest Park is very grateful to all the generous contributions from so many people on Giving Tuesday.  Our fundraising dollars were matched by Dorothy Gillian, Martin Sorice and Everett Wealth Solutions and we raised $2,500.   The tremendous show of kindness and support to our local history is inspiring and we are thrilled to have so many new friends part of the Historical Society of Forest Park.  Your membership, commitment and contributions help to boost pride in our hometown.  
 
We study the past to understand the present in order to shape our future.  Our vision is to have enough funding to staff growth, preserve and properly display our collection; develop community cultural and artistic program;  open a hacker-maker space to support robotics, sewing, cooking, art of all genre, woodworking and so much more.
 
We would love to raise more friends to help us achieve these goals.  If you are interested in helping with your time, talent or treasure we’d love to hear from you. We look forward to the New Year with anticipation of more for and from this amazing community.
