from the Harness Racing Museum and Hall of Fame

Goshen, NY — The Harness Racing Museum has recently joined national online fundraising efforts by becoming a Museum Partner with ShopforMuseums.com.

Partnering with hundreds of museums, parks, zoos, aquariums and science centers across the country, ShopforMuseums.com serves as a means to raise funds to support operating costs at not for profit facilities. Anyone who shops online can have a portion of their purchases donated to a museum of their choice with no extra cost to the consumer.

Supporters of The Harness Racing Museum are invited to shop with over 200 national retail merchants and at no extra cost, have a percentage of each online purchase donated to the museum. Examples of sponsoring merchants include USA Today, Office Depot, Delta Airlines and Enterprise Rent-a-Car.

Participation is simple and secure. To designate a portion of an online purchase to The Harness Racing Museum, shoppers simply go to www.ShopforMuseums.com and log in. Then, choose to support The Harness Racing Museum and go about shopping. The percentage of each purchase gets tracked automatically as long as shopping begins each time at ShopforMuseums.com.

On September 19, a special “Double Donation” day will be in effect so all Harness Racing Museum supporters are urged to shop till they drop on that day! The museum continues to be grateful for the wonderful outpouring of support received from its friends and trusts this new fundraising opportunity will, as usual, be well received!

The Harness Racing Museum & Hall of Fame is located at 240 Main Street in Goshen, New York, and is open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. General admission, thanks to the support of The United States Trotting Association is free!
