Corporate Support for Enfield Shaker Museum
Local businesses and large corporations will find that supporting Enfield Shaker Museum as Corporate Partners is mutually beneficial. Corporate Partners help to sustain our operations and programs while the Museum is able to provide visibility and recognition to corporations in museum newsletters, at events, on our website, and on our social media.
“If you’re targeting a younger demographic, you need to embrace corporate charity programs. Your customers expect nothing less. Both millennials and Gen Zers grew up in a world that encouraged recycling and social good. Instead of donating money directly to causes they care about, shoppers under the age of 40 prefer to give back through where they shop.”

Other Ways To Get Your Business Involved
Sponsor an Event or Program
Events and programs at the Museum are widely advertised! You can promote your business to Enfield Shaker Museum’s visitors and members by sponsoring an upcoming event. Annual events like the Spring Shaker Forum, Stone Mill Concert Series, Collectors’ Forum, Harvest Festival, or the Cider and Cheese Festival are great opportunities to advertise to the community. You can also choose to sponsor an educational program, like History Alive, Shakers 101, or our Archaeological Field School.
Support Fundraising Activities and Events
Every year Enfield Shaker Museum organizes several fundraising activities to benefit the Museum’s mission, including NH Gives and the Fall Auction and Giving Gala. These events offer meaningful opportunities for corporate support through financial contributions, auction item donations, and fundraising matches.
Encourage Your Employees to Volunteer at the Museum
We look forward to working with those companies who made it possible for their employees to volunteer for the benefit of our community. We have both short-term and long-term volunteer opportunities as museum guides and demonstrating craftspeople, on Preservation Wednesday (help with building and grounds projects), as well as in education (our History Alive program for school groups), development (grant writing and fund-raising), our herb and flower gardens, at our special events (festivals and concerts), and administrative support.
If you’re interested in supporting the Museum in a way that we have not listed above, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We welcome your ideas. Your support is incredibly important to us!
