Legendary Tales. Timeless Reward.
Hospitality revenue alone is barely enough to sustain operations and preservation. We rely on grants and donations to fill the gap. Consider a donation today.
Revenue from our hospitality operations alone does not cover the increasing costs to maintain and preserve our historic property, purchase necessary archival supplies and equipment, and create our quality educational programs. The Wayside Inn Foundation does not receive funding from the town of Sudbury, the state, or any federal agency and it does not have an endowment. In addition to our revenue from operations, we rely on donations from individuals, corporate donors, and foundations and are grateful for the community’s response to our challenges. Consider a tax-deductible donation today.
Your donation goes toward:
- Preserving and restoring our historic buildings and grounds
- Maintaining the Longfellow Memorial Gardens, walking trails, waterways, and fields
- Developing and hosting educational and cultural programs and events
- Protecting and improving public access to our archives and museum collections
- Creating engaging educational materials and interpretive displays to connect the public to our rich history
You Can Make a Difference.
All donations to The Wayside Inn Foundation help ensure the preservation and enjoyment of this special place for years to come. Donations made to The Wayside Inn Foundation are used for general operating purposes, including deferred maintenance and facility costs, unless restricted for a specific purpose by a donor, or part of a fundraising campaign supporting identified strategic priorities. At the discretion of the Board of Trustees, the Board may choose to designate donations without donor restrictions that are subject to self-imposed limits on their use. Thank you.
