The Pennsbury Society, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, ensures that Pennsbury Manor continues to grow and succeed in its mission of education. Founded in 1966, the Pennsbury Society supports the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission in the administration of Pennsbury Manor.

Children learn from seeing, touching, and experiencing the world around them. History is brought to life and passion for learning grows when children experience first hand what they read about in books. We invite you to support Pennsbury Manor and help share our local history as the only historic site in the country that relates specifically to William Penn and his impact on American history. Our mission at Pennsbury Manor is “to preserve the past, honor the present and shape the future” by interpreting the values and achievements of Pennsylvania’s founder, William Penn. Your charitable contributions allow us to continue our mission by allowing us to provide quality educational tours and programs for over 10,000 school children annually. You can support Pennsbury Manor in a variety of ways:

EITC provides companies with a 75% tax credit for donations they make to a non-profit educational improvement organization. The tax credit increases to 90% if the company commits to making the same donations for two consecutive years. A business paying taxes in Pennsylvania can receive up to $750,000 in tax credits annually. More importantly, the EITC provides children and families with a choice in their education and a chance in life.
