Why Support Woodrow Wilson House?
The Woodrow Wilson House was opened to the public as a museum in 1963. Its existence is a testament to the devotion and foresight of Mrs. Wilson in preserving this home for posterity. We take our responsibilities seriously as stewards of this home, its garden and its collections. Donations to the Woodrow Wilson House help us succeed in this work.

In addition, we have a responsibility to educate the public about President Wilson and his legacy. President Wilson and his administration were a bridge between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. His legacy includes the League of Nations, women’s right to vote, and the Federal Reserve System. And so much more. The site also examines President Wilson’s shortcomings, especially relating to race and civil liberties. An honest appraisal of history helps us understand ourselves as a nation and a people.

We are planning educational programming relating to the period from 1900 to 1925 to address topics such as:

• Race, gender and inequality; Wilson & the People: A Complicated Legacy
• International law and the concept of human rights;
• Women in society and the workforce;
• Foundations of modern progressive government;
• Education reform;
• Roles of the Congress and the President;
• Social changes relating to race, immigration and the labor movement;
• Acceptance of modern thought (Einstein, Freud, Darwin);
• Technologies for transportation and communication; and
• The United States on the world stage
