We at the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse & Museum are hoping for the continuous health and safety of everyone amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Though we are closed at this time, our beautiful lighthouse still requires the selfless support of its community. The Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse Preservation Association is a non-profit corporation that receives no tax-funded support at the federal, state, or local levels, meaning that our preservative efforts are completely made possible by our wonderful supporters. Please continue reading for ways to support the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse during this difficult time.
Lighthouse Gift Shop
A significant portion of the Association’s operating funds is generated through gift shop sales. Offering a wide array of gifts such as nautical-themed merchandise, home décor, and jewelry, there is a little something for everyone in our gift shop. You can visit our online gift shop Lighthouse Locker to peruse our entire selection. Find the perfect gift for yourself or a loved one and give the gift of support to the lighthouse as well.
Membership
Becoming an annual member of the Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse Preservation Association is the perfect way to directly support the Association’s ongoing efforts to keep the lighthouse looking brand new while also gaining unlimited access to the lighthouse and museum. As if that wasn’t reason enough already, the cost of membership may also qualify as tax-deduction! Please visit our online Member Enrollment page for more details regarding our various membership packages, all of which include free admission to the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse during regular hours of operation and a 10% discount on all Lighthouse merchandise.
Donation Support
One hundred percent of all tax-deductible donations to the lighthouse will be used to help fund our ongoing preservation, restoration, and educational efforts. Donations start at $10 and any amount more than that is greatly appreciated. Donors of $1000 or more are gifted with a Principle Keeper Membership in appreciation of their generosity, as well as recognition in the Association’s quarterly newsletter. Donations to the general operating fund can be made online at Lighthouse Donations or mailed directly to the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse at 4931 South Peninsula Drive, Ponce Inlet, FL 32127.
Memorial Bricks
Our memorial bricks are the perfect way to permanently memorialize loved ones or special events in the lighthouse’s memorial walkway. Each personalized brick features the Ponce de Leon Lighthouse logo as well as three lines of customizable text laser-etched into it and duplicate bricks are also available for display in your home, garden, or workplace. All proceeds generated by our memorial bricks fund the Association’s ongoing efforts. You can order your personalized brick from home by visiting the Association’s online Memorial Bricks Page or by filling out an order form (also available online) and mailing it in with an enclosed check.
