Donor Matching Program
We are deeply grateful for your generosity and commitment. We hope you will join us once again by making a gift to support the restoration of the Meetinghouse. With every dollar matched, your contribution will have twice the impact.
The Golden State Meetinghouse Challenge
Double Your Impact
We are excited to launch a special Meetinghouse Challenge for our California members throughout November and December. A generous group of members who wish to remain anonymous have stepped forward to match all gifts raised during the challenge, dollar for dollar, up to $50,000.
We have seen the power of these challenges before. Similar efforts in Florida and Texas this spring and summer each generated more than $100,000 in support of the Meetinghouse restoration, helping to advance this transformative project.
To learn more about the project, giving opportunities, or the challenge, please contact Cheryl Soares, Executive Director, at executivedirector@

Why This Matters
Your support helps complete the restoration and transformation of the Mayflower Meetinghouse, the site where the Pilgrims gathered for worship beginning in 1622 and where their shared story took root.
This is a rare opportunity to both honor that legacy and ensure that this historic space continues to educate and inspire future generations.
Looking Ahead
If your member society has any interest in launching a similar initiative, we would love the opportunity to discuss it with you.
