For nearly 200 years, the New Bedford Port Society has preserved the sacred spaces that tell the story of our maritime heritage. The Seamen’s Bethel and Mariner’s Home are not only historic landmarks—they are living parts of our community where memories are made, history is honored, and futures are shaped.
As we chart a course toward our bicentennial in 2030, we invite you to join us in supporting this year’s annual campaign. Your gift today helps us preserve the spaces that connect us to our seafaring past while ensuring they remain active, meaningful parts of our cultural landscape.
With your support, we can continue our restoration efforts, expand educational programming, enhance visitor experiences, and prepare for a milestone celebration that reflects the full impact of the Port Society’s legacy for the next 100 years.
