Contribute funds to restore Oppenheimer House for fall 2022 opening.

Help us restore the Oppenheimer House to add to our museum tours.

As you may know I serve on the Los Alamos Historical Society Board of Directors. We were very excited when a Bathtub Row house, formerly owned by Helene and Jerry Suydam, was donated to our museum. In the 1940s, the house was the home of J. Robert Oppenheimer. He and his family lived there while he served as director of the Manhattan Project.

We are in the Phase 1 process of repairing and renovating the house to be included in our museum tours and to be used for special events. It will be a superb addition to our museum that will inspire and educate our community and worldwide visitors.

Please click on my donor link to obtain more information about the project and then decide whether or not to make a contribution. We are working hard to obtain funding for Phase 1, and if you click on the donor page link to the three-phase details, you will see we have quite a ways to go in this effort. Be assured we will be seeking grants and other fiscal streams as well.

I am contacting a few more friends, relatives, and colleagues and optimistically hoping to reach my goal. If you choose to donate, please give only what is comfortable for you at this time for this Giving Tuesday effort that will keep enhancing educational history experiences in Los Alamos.

Thank you in advance, and I look forward to seeing you soon.

Additionally, if you would prefer to mail a check instead, please mail to: Los Alamos Historical Society, PO Box 43, Los Alamos, NM 87544. Please note the contribution is for the Oppenheimer House Renovation Fund/Giving Tuesday effort. You may also deliver a check to us at the museum at any time. Thank you so much.Giving online is easy and fast, and your support will make a real difference. I appreciate your help!
