Edith Wharton - The Mount
Help Us Save The Mount

The Mount is faced with imminent foreclosure, which could result in this National Historic Landmark being closed to the public forever.

Please make a contribution now! To prevent foreclosure, The Mount estimates that it needs to raise up to $3 million through the Save The Mount campaign before May 31, 2008.

We Must Reach Our Goal by May 31 - Contribute Now!

The Mount has secured a pledge of matching funds, which will be made available to supplement funds raised under Save The Mount, if The Mount is able to reach a successful restructuring with its principal creditors. Your contribution today will bring us closer to survival and success.

All donations will be processed only if The Mount achieves agreement with its creditors. When successful, we anticipate being able to process your gift in early May. Letters of acknowledgement and membership information will be mailed to everyone. If the campaign is unsuccessful, The Mount will destroy all checks and credit card forms and post a notice thereof on this website.

It is due to the generosity of our donors that this reprieve has been granted. We will achieve our ultimate goal only through the campaign’s continued momentum.

Thank you.
