Support Us - Four Ways to Give

Memorial Brick Program: Step Into History
Help us maintain the historic Ponce de Leon Inlet Light Station by participating in the Memorial Brick Program. Memorial bricks are a wonderful and meaningful way to honor loved ones and to celebrate birthdays, weddings, special events, and family vacations.  Proceeds from the purchase of your personalized brick will help fund ongoing restoration and preservation efforts, educational programming, and exhibit development at the Lighthouse. Each brick features a laser engraved image of the Ponce Inlet Light Station logo and up to three lines of text. Bricks will be installed in the Light Station’s Memorial Walkway for perpetuity. Full and miniature sized duplicate bricks are also available for display in your home and office. Individuals interested in purchasing a Memorial Brick may do so online at by selecting the following link: Memorial Bricks Online.
Endowment Funds: Investing in the Next Century
 Thanks to the tireless efforts of the Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse Preservation Association this once dilapidated facility is now considered one of the preeminent Light Stations in the country. As state assistance declines and the cost of restoration and maintenance rises, the importance of ongoing financial support from the private sector could not be greater. Only through the generosity of its members, corporate sponsors, and museum visitors can the Association continue its ongoing effort to preserve and interpret this National Historic Landmark.
Many of these members and visitors realize that the Association's strength in the future depends on building a foundation through endowment today.
Endowment Fund capital, which is held in perpetuity, protects the Light Station by providing financial security for long-term preservation, operations, and museum growth. Cash, stocks, mutual funds and real estate are all donor options. Please contact Preservation Association staff via email at info@ponceinlet.org or by phone at (386) 761-1821 for more information about the Endowment Fund.
