Corporate Membership

Although we have a significant number of individual and family memberships that provide us some of the resources to carry out our important work, our businesses and other organizations also play an important part in our ability to carry out our mission.

Please consider having your business or organization provide support to us with a corporate membership.   Corporate membership is only $75 and provides following benefits:

• Display of your logo on our web site
• Display your logo on our Museum Corporate Partner poster at the entrance to our museum.
• Recognition during our many lectures and other events
• Two complementary individual memberships to the Society
• Special invitations to our events and our Annual Meeting.

Most importantly, your support will help us in our mission to Preserve, Protect, and Promote Portsmouth history.  Stewardship of our rich history is the legacy that will provide a lasting impact on our citizens and preserve the unique character of our town.

You can become a corporate supporter by downloading and mailing a PHS Membership Application   or apply using the ONLINE options (above).
