Become a sustainer today by making a monthly pledge.
Donations are crucial to our efforts to research, preserve, and share Utah's history. Your donations pay for monthly service costs like website, communications infrastructure, contractor services, and research team expenses.
Our Goals
Our primary goals are to promote scholarly research, provide resources for historical studies, and create a network of persons with similar interests. We wish to ensure that the community receives this crucial historical information.
Your donations preserve forgotten stories of Utah. These stories restore hope to communities that feel marginalized and forgotten. They foster appreciation, love, and brotherhood in communities that don’t know or understand marginalized communities.
