How YOU can help

The most useful and easiest thing you can do is tell all your friends and neighbours about this fabulous, innovative Society that is actively promoting the South Coast’s fascinating history.

Give them a copy of Recollections, encourage them to email ‘Send Recollections’ to southcoasthistory@yahoo.com so they, too, can enjoy receiving Recollections every second month.

The next most useful thing you can do is send a donation to South Coast History Society. It costs us almost $30,000 each year just to print Recollections – so, that’s $30,000 we must raise every year! Therefore, financial support (however small, however large) is always GREATLY appreciated – and every dollar of your support ultimately directly benefits the South Coast community. (We have no overheads such as paid staff, rent, power bills; all our activities are undertaken by volunteers from within the community.) Those donating $25 or more are given membership of the Society (with few benefits – apart from knowing you are supporting a really worthwhile community effort, that the community really appreciates!).
