#GivingTwain 2024

On Giving Tuesday, the Holiday Spirit truly shines brightest. The giving of a gift is a selfless act that brings joy and enrichment to others and some of the greatest gifts come without boxes, bags, or bows.

You can gift that joy to a young person by giving to the Mark Twain Boyhood Home this Giving Tuesday.

Youth admission to The Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum is $6. The goal of the Museum this Giving Tuesday is to raise funds for youth admission in 2025. For every $6 donated, a young person ages 6 - 17 will be able to tour The Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum for FREE in 2025.

The Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum’s mission is to promote awareness and appreciation of the life and works of Mark Twain and to demonstrate the relevance of his stories and ideas to citizens of the world.

Your gift could create, educate, inspire, and motivate the voices of the next generation by supporting our mission.

Mark Twain said, “If you want love and abundance in life, give it away.”

How many young minds could the Museum have an impact on in the next year? Your support would go a long way in serving as many youths as possible in 2025 and helping to create their stories for years to come.
